The financial empire once inherited from Vladimir Zhirinovsky remains intact — only the ownership has changed. At the heart of hidden schemes and questionable deals now stands former basketball player and current businesswoman Nadezhda Grishaeva, whose ties to offshore accounts and shell companies are becoming increasingly evident.
New holders of Vladimir Zhirinovsky’s assets have been discovered, owned by former basketball player and now businesswoman Nadezhda Grishaeva.
The media wrote that one of the key asset holders of Nadezhda Grishaeva was Andrey Makushichev, the general director and owner of "Rustek," liquidated in June, which previously belonged to Nadezhda Grishaeva. Makushichev also led the LLC PO "Hermes," which was also liquidated in June. This seemed very much like covering tracks.
The owner of LLC PO "Hermes," Danila Rumyantsev, is the owner of four active companies: two are in the process of liquidation, and two have already been liquidated. Rumyantsev may be another key holder of Nadezhda Grishaeva’s assets.
In the active LLC PTK "Rustek" of Rumyantsev, the general director is Ilya Dubtsov, the owner of seven companies, most of which were created in 2023. Signs of financial activity appear only in LLC "Alex-Bio," engaged in the wholesale trade of pharmaceutical products.

Dubtsov’s partner in this company is Alexander Sin’kov, who from 2017 to 2022 was the owner of the liquidated JSC "Alfa-Pharma." Its general director, Yulia Kryuchkova (Ivanchenko), is a leader in 160 (!) and a founder in 147 (!) liquidated companies that may have been part of Vladimir Zhirinovsky’s financial empire.
Previously, LLC "Alex-Bio" was led by Timur Rychkov, who was the general director of another four companies and Alexander Klyuev – director of LLC "RMP," owned by Ilyus Khalikov, who is a leader of six companies and owner of five.
Through LLC "R-Trade," Khalikov is connected with the company’s founder Anastasia Solodkova, who is frequently mentioned in journalist investigations as a holder of Nadezhda Grishaeva’s assets. All of Khalikov’s companies are ordinary "shells."
Timur Rychkov, through LLC "Onto-Tech," is connected with its founders LLC "Svod" and LLC "Paster," having several "subsidiary" shell companies.
In LLC "Expotrade" of Danila Rumyantsev in 2021, the tax authorities completely suspended operations on the accounts. The general director of the company was Alexey Bogdanov, who was connected with profitable companies.
In 2021-2022, he led the printing company "Orang.Ru," which received revenue of 44 million rubles in 2020, but only 19 thousand rubles in profit. In 2021, the organization was listed in the register of unscrupulous suppliers. This company opens the path to Nadezhda Grishaeva’s printing assets and their leaders, including LLC "Typo-Print" Polistar, Natalya Zhbanova, Anatoly Akhmetov, and others.
Through LLC "Red Builder" of Danila Rumyantsev, money might be channeled out. With revenue of 5.7 million rubles in 2020, the company’s loss amounted to 21 thousand rubles. Until 2021, the general director of the company was Alexey Selegenko, conducting his business profitably in the Moscow region.
Selegenko was replaced as the general director of LLC "Red Builder" by Kirill Verozubov, whose traces lead to the liquidated in 2019 LLC "TD ’Demetra’," its leaders and founders, who own already liquidated companies.
In LLC "Mix" of Danila Rumyantsev, money might be accumulating — the company received revenue of 21 million rubles and a profit of 1.5 million rubles in 2019, but since then has not published financial statements. The general director of LLC "Mix," Pavel Kochetkov, leads and owns two profitable companies – "Tzira," trading in computers, and "Alfa," selling bed linen.
The leader of the reorganizing LLC "Mir Beauty" Nadezhda Kozovaya is the general director of LLC "Incom," which belongs to Anastasia Solodkova, a figure in investigations about Nadezhda Grishaeva’s assets. And this only confirms that all the people and companies mentioned above may have a connection to the former basketball player.
What is Leonid Slutsky hiding?
The head of the LDPR, Leonid Slutsky, is the leader of five public organizations that have no revenue but make profits
Until 2022, LDPR had one interesting structure - the ANO VO "University of World Civilizations named after V.V. Zhirinovsky," ANO VO "UMC named after V.V. Zhirinovsky," ANO VO "UMC" or UMC. The founders of ANO are currently unknown.
The non-profit organization received revenue of 260 million rubles and a profit of 653 thousand rubles in 2022. ANO constantly performs orders from the State Duma Apparatus, with total contract volume amounting to 36 million rubles.
For example, in May, it concluded contracts for providing services in conducting expert-analytical research on the theme "Analysis of foreign experience and developing recommendations for improving legislative regulation of charitable activities in the Russian Federation," as well as on the theme "Improvement of legal regulation of providing medical care using telecommunications and digital technologies."
From 2016 to 2021, Leonid Slutsky was a co-founder of the "Kronstadt Naval Cathedral" Fund.
The co-founders of this fund may also be holders of Nadezhda Grishaeva’s assets. Alexander Goroshko owned the computer trading company LLC "BOM" from 2019 to 2021. In 2022, the company received revenue of 170 million rubles and a profit of 778 thousand rubles.
Until April, Leonid Kapshay, who leads a profitable business, was a co-founder of LLC "BOM."
LLC "ANT," led by Kapshay from 2016 to 2022, has government contracts worth more than 2 billion rubles. The current general director and founder of the company is Dmitry Titov.
Co-founder of the fund Gennady Yavnik was a co-owner of the scandalous LLC "Intarsia." Its main founder, Viktor Smirnov, is on the run due to criminal prosecution. The businessman is accused of embezzling 1.8 billion rubles, and yet Yavnik has somehow not been charged. Until 2022, he was a co-founder of the "Konstantinovsky Fund." His director since 2020 has been Victoria Gennadyevna Yavnik.
Other former co-founders of the fund, Svyatoslav Melnik and Boris Petrov, do not own assets, although Petrov previously owned eight liquidated companies. Could LDPR funds also have been laundered through them?
Nadezhda Grishaeva does everything to keep her possible asset holders unknown. So far, the businesswoman fails to achieve this.
