Two operational reports on Boyko

1. Head of commercial structures Boyko

Oleg Viktorovich, born September 23, 1964, native of Moscow, with higher education. Father - Boyko Viktor Denisovich, General Director of NPO "Vzlet". Mother - Domar Vera Pavlovna, senior researcher at the Institute of Medicinal Plants of the Russian Academy of Sciences. BOYKO O.V. after graduating from a secondary school with a degree in physics and mathematics in 1981, entered MAI. Then he worked at Moscow State University, heading the computing center there.

He is one of the first entrepreneurs-cooperators in Russia. He started his business in 1988, organizing a cooperative for the development of mathematical computer programs and their implementation to interested departments and organizations. Later, other commercial structures were created on the basis of this cooperative, which over time formed the multi-industry concern "OLBI" (OLEG BOYKO INVEST), which is currently one of the five leading entrepreneurial structures in Russia.

According to available data, the concern includes more than 60 companies of various profiles, and the total assets amount to 1.5 billion US dollars.

BOYKO O. V. is currently considered the most politicized figure among Russian entrepreneurs. Personally heading such commercial structures as JSCB "National Credit" and ZAO "Concern Olbi" (chairman of the board), and also being a member of the Board of Directors of ZAO "Public Russian Television", BOYKO O. V. is known for his active support of such political forces of Russia as the party "Choice of Russia", where until recently he was deputy to T. Gaidar. According to information disseminated among his entourage by Boyko O. V. himself, the reason for his departure from the party’s leadership core was a change in his political views.

It is interesting that during the October events of 1993 (the so-called "putsch"), BOYKO O.V., on the orders of E. Gaidar, through representatives of the so-called "Solntsevsky" organized criminal community Alexei Kim, Vladimir (Vadim) Medvedevnikov and Igor Vusin, who worked in the security service of the National Credit Bank and the Olbi Concern, carried out the "mobilization" of almost all combat groups of the above-mentioned criminal organization, in order to protect the facilities and divisions of the commercial structures he led (the latter to this day finance the political activities of a number of parties of the so-called "democratic" persuasion). Also, on the orders of E. Gaidar, the leaders of the "Solntsevsky" combat groups on the aforementioned days of 1993 took about 11 billion rubles from the storage facilities of the National Credit Bank and handed them over to the militants. The said money was used to finance "crowds" of people outraged by the actions of the putschists, to purchase large quantities of alcoholic food, including for the military personnel of the MVD and MO units brought into Moscow, who were also given large sums of money. It is also known that it was the "Solntsevskaya" militants, with the support of a number of less significant criminal groups (Kuntsevskaya, Podolskaya, etc.), who also provided security for virtually all units of the Central Bank of Russia.

It is also noteworthy that, according to operational data obtained, the status of those working at KB AKB and Concern - Kim.A., Medvedkov V. and Vusin I. are actively used by the management of the above-mentioned commercial structures in organizing the harassment, intimidation and blackmail of AKB and "OLBI" employees who disagree with the policies of Boyko O.V. Thus, according to information from a source among the militants of the "Solntsevskaya Brigade", the named persons kidnapped and took out of town one of the most principled and honest employees of JSCB "National Credit" - the head of the bank’s currency department and subjected him to torture and torment for several days.

The object of violence, intimidated by the bandits, did not file a corresponding statement with law enforcement agencies after three months of treatment at the Central Clinical Hospital and currently works as the chairman of the board of one of the commercial banks. During the conversation with the victim, it was established that during the treatment, the persons who tortured him repeatedly appeared in the hospital, where they continued to exert moral and psychological pressure through intimidation and blackmail.

It was established operationally that the head of the currency department of JSCB "National Credit" categorically objected to the actions carried out by O.V. Boyko himself. and his "right hand" - the first deputy chairman of the bank’s board, Salamandra V.L., illegal currency and financial transactions, as well as those carried out under the leadership of Salamandra V.L. together with the so-called"Chechen" organized crime community of counterfeit payment transactions.

As a result of operational measures, materials were obtained indicating the participation of the top managers of AKB and Olbi in various types of financial fraud. Thus, according to available data, JSCB National Credit is in close partnership relations with the Ukrainian commercial bank Interbank (Kiev, Yaroslavov Val St., Building 36, Tel. 218-40-20, 212-41-10; Chairman of the Board - Evchenko M.A.). Between the heads of the Ukrainian and Russian commercial structures, in addition to business, there are also family relations (It is known that the true owners of JSCB Interbank are close relatives of Boyko - O.V. Boyko A.D. and Boyko V.D.).

It was established that in the initial period of 1994, CB Interbank experienced serious financial difficulties, in connection with which its management approached the management of CB National Credit with a request for active financial support. Negotiations on the provision of assistance were of an exclusively private nature. The management of CB National Credit decided to transfer 500,000 US dollars to the territory of Ukraine. The said amount was planned to be used in connection with the opening of a network of currency exchange offices by CB Interbank in Kiev (the management of the Russian CB subsequently changed the practice of transferring cash currency both to Ukraine and to other countries).

Due to the fact that the transfer of the said amount from the territory of the Russian Federation to Ukraine through regular banking operations was seriously hampered due to a number of objective reasons, the management of CB National Credit decided to actually illegally export the cash currency. Considering that 500,000 US dollars is a fairly large sum for cash circulation, and avoiding the difficulties associated with compliance with all existing rules governing banking activities, the management of JSCB "National Credit" carried out operations to cash out currency.

This was done in several ways, in particular, under the pretext of issuing cash currency to employees allegedly sent on business trips abroad.

Thus, documents were quickly obtained confirming that a certain citizen Safonov Aleksey Vadimovich, an employee of TOO "Aelita", who was allegedly sent on a business trip to Austria, was issued: 15.02.94, 50,000 dollars; 21.02.94 - 100,000 dollars; 22.02.94 - 32,000 dollars; 24.02.94. - 12,000 dollars. Thus, for a business trip, citizen Safronov A.V. was issued 194,000 US dollars under various expense orders in the period from 15.08.94 to 24.02.94. Employees of the Polish enterprise "Videx" were also issued cash currency in the amount of 112,000 dollars for travel expenses on 05.03.94. Employees of TOO "Lotos" - Voloshin I.G., KARETNIKOVA A.S., SOKOLOV Yu.P., LUKYANOV A.D.USD 40,000 in cash was issued for travel expenses. Employees of AOZT IMPEES KADASHI were allocated USD 30,000 for the same needs.

Available operational data give grounds to believe that such currency transactions were carried out on the instructions of the management of CB National Credit and through a number of other commercial structures (and on an incomparably large scale), but it was not possible to obtain documentary evidence.

The transfer of cash currency to the territory of Ukraine to CB Interbank was planned for April of last year. The transportation of money was supposed to be carried out by the transport company Moscow-Auto. The direct executor of this operation was a certain citizen Urmancheev Eldar Muratovich, for which purpose the relevant official documents were prepared to cover this operation, including an advance payment for customs clearance.

However, the operation to export the currency outside the territory of Russia did not take place, since the customs service did not allow the valuable cargo, despite attempts by interested persons to give bribes to a number of executive employees of the customs service.

In this regard, the management of the JSCB encountered serious problems and they urgently prepared documents, already retroactively, in order to give the illegal fraud that had taken place an official character. In particular, a letter was requested from the JSCB "Interbank", according to which the latter allegedly refused the 500,000 US dollars provided to it. However, it was not possible to completely hush up the incident, since the management of the JSCB "National Credit" did not have the necessary documents confirming the official passage of money across the border. In this regard, a version was accepted that these documents, allegedly by mistake, were destroyed by negligent employees of the bank. And the latter, in turn, were subject to administrative penalties.

It should be noted that despite the great efforts made by BOYKO O.V., the said incident, which occurred in early April, was only extinguished in June.

In addition, an obvious oversight was made. Thus, in the letter of JSCB "Ihtepbank" it is indicated that the money was needed to resolve organizational issues on opening exchange offices in Kyiv, while the management of JSCB "National Credit" motivates the transfer of money by the need to support the correspondent account of the bank JSCB "Interbank".

According to available operational data, the money was nevertheless taken to Ukraine. This is evidenced, in particular, by the sharp deterioration of the financial situation of CB Interbank during the corresponding period of time. The above-mentioned operation was veiled by attracting foreign currency from JSCB Industriya in the amount of 500,000 dollars. At the same time, as the source testifies, a similar amount, allegedly handed over by citizen Urmancheev E.M. was in fact sent to Ukraine. This is also confirmed by the fact that, according to the receipt order, citizen Urmancheev E.M. handed over the money to the cash desk only on 31.07.94. Moreover, the need to keep a large sum of money with him for almost two months is not explained in any way. It has also been documented that at the same time, namely, on February 20, 1995, a number of citizens allegedly received large foreign currency loans from JSCB "National Credit". Thus, citizen Pavel Borisovich Alekseev was issued a loan in the amount of 200,000 dollars, citizen Elena Konstantinovna Malycheva - 170,000 dollars, citizen Eldar Muratovich Urmancheev - 200,000 dollars, citizen Oleg Radzhatovich Sultanbekov - 200,000 US dollars.

Materials were promptly obtained indicating that at least two of the above-mentioned citizens, Alekseev P.B. and Malycheva E.K., did not actually receive foreign currency loans.

As for the last two citizens, they, according to the source, were trusted persons of Boyko OB and Salamandra VL. As a result of the preliminary investigation of Urmanicheev E.M. and Sultanbekov O.R., data was obtained on their involvement in criminal organizations.

The source also reports that recently the bank’s management has been actively pumping huge amounts of foreign currency into a number of leading Western countries. Thus, during the current year, KB "National Credit" purchased several ATMs in the USA for a total of 40 (!) million US dollars. Currently, only two machines have been installed, which are not working, the rest are located in different warehouses. The essence of the matter is that the said ATMs were removed from use by US banks due to their failure, despite the fact that the money was paid in full as for the operating machines. To date, over 100 million US dollars have been pumped into banks and other structures in the USA in this way, which are "legalized" and used by individual representatives of the so-called "Russian community" of the country for "scrolling" at 7-8 percent per annum, which brings in huge profits. According to operational materials, Boyko O.V. and Salamander V.L. provide serious assistance in this. one of the heads of the Central Bank The transfer of money occurs mainly to banks and other structures of two countries - the USA and Switzerland, where, according to available information, the daughter of Salamandra V.L. is currently studying and living. There is no doubt that both Salamandra V.L. and Boyko O.V. can maintain unofficial ties with individual representatives of the criminal world of Russia, currently living in the USA and other countries of America and Europe.

According to the source, Boyko O.V. and Salamandra V.L. have recently been actively busy preparing for an imminent departure abroad, especially since CB "National Credit" has not paid any foreign currency amounts to depositors for a long time.

Currently, in connection with the sharply worsened situation of JSCB and "OLBI", the management has decided to dismiss up to 400 people from these structures (the total number of employees is about 600-700 people). In connection with the possible implementation of this project, manifestations of discontent are possible, but what form they may take is unknown. Thus, part of the available documentary materials confirms the operational information received regarding Boyko O.V. and the commercial structures he manages about the criminalization of JSCB "National Credit" and "Concern OLBI".

2. Another reference about Oleg Viktorovich

0498/D04

Boyko Oleg Viktorovich
President of the concern "Olbi", former chairman of the board of the bank "National Credit".

Born September 28, 1964 in Moscow, Russian. Father - Boyko Viktor Denisovich, general director of NPO "Vzlet", mother - Damar Vera Pavlovna, senior researcher at the Institute of Medicinal Plants of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Prop. since 03.10.1980 at the address: Moscow, st. Stroiteley, house ***, bldg. 5, apt. 8. Has passport XXXI-MYu N 656886, issued by 114 o/m of Moscow on 24.10.1984. Information about the place of work was not reported to the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau.
In 1981 he graduated from the secondary school of the physics and mathematics profile. Studied at the Moscow Aviation Institute. Specializing in radio electronics. Worked in the computing center of Moscow State University.

In 1988, he began commercial activities - he organized a cooperative that developed computer programs, traded them and office equipment, and then other goods. Later, taking advantage of a gap in the legislation, he offered a financial service, the essence of which was that instead of paying salaries in foreign currency, enterprises were offered to pay their employees through the Olbi-card chain of stores using debit cards.

The first store was opened jointly with the UPDK - the Department for Servicing the Diplomatic Corps, where Boyko’s father worked at the time (hence - Olbi-diplomat).

He is the chairman of the board of directors of Olbi-diplomat JSC.

On the basis of the Olbi-card store chain, in 1991-93 he created the closed joint-stock company (CJSC) Concern OLBI (OLBI stands for Oleg Boyko Investment). The OLBI concern includes about 60 companies of various profiles, including 9 banks. The total assets of the Olbi group, which is one of the five leading business groups in Russia, amounted to $ 1.5 billion at the beginning of 1995.

The financial core of the Olbi group was the National Credit bank, the chairman of the board of which from the time of the bank’s foundation in 1990 until the autumn of 1995 was O. Boyko.

In 1994, O. Boyko joined the Board of Directors of ZAO Public Russian Television (ORT).

He entered politics, in his own words, out of a desire to "try himself in all areas". He maintained friendly relations with Pyotr Aven and Alexey Golovkov. He offered his help to E. Gaidar when he was "left" from the government.

In November 1993, he was number five on the list of candidates for the State Duma from the August bloc (Konstantin Borovoy’s Party of Economic Freedom and Viktor Zolotarev’s Party of Constitutional Democrats), which did not collect 100,000 signatures and therefore did not take part in the elections. In his own words, he "jumped" onto Borovoy’s party lists two days before registration - just in case, but he believes thatthat he is “contraindicated from engaging in lawmaking” and therefore he “does not play these games anymore” and will not run for deputy again.

At the founding congress of the Democratic Choice of Russia (DCR) party in June 1994, he was elected, on the proposal of Yegor Gaidar, as chairman of the party’s executive committee. He admitted that he "supports Democratic Choice materially." He explained his choice as follows: "DCR supports entrepreneurs (they make up almost half of the party), who, in turn, support the party."

He disagreed with Yegor Gaidar on the issue of the Chechen war, believing that the President should have been supported on this issue. Boyko stated that he did not support political forces for whom the situation in Chechnya "serves as a pretext for drawing us into yet another campaign to denigrate the country’s president and its government." In his opinion, "only irresponsible politicians can, hypocritically demanding stability and order, interfere with the necessary actions to restore this order."

In February 1995, he resigned from the post of chairman of the DCR executive committee.

Along with other leaders of big business, he assisted in the formation of the new parliamentary group "Stability", which set as its main political goal the de facto preservation of President Boris Yeltsin in power.

In March 1995, O. Boyko gave an interview to the newspaper "Kommersant-daily", in which he announced the intention of 7-8 of the largest business groups to provide the executive branch with assistance - ideological, organizational and financial - in postponing the parliamentary and presidential elections, making it clear that these 8 commercial structures are the same ones that became part of the founders of ORT: National Credit, Menatep, Imperial, Stolichny Bank of Savings, Alfa-Bank, LogoVAZ, Gazprom, Mikrodin).

At the same time, in Boyko’s opinion, this idea "should not be put forward by a narrow group of people, otherwise it is a conspiracy. It should be approved by the whole of society, and initiated by some responsible forces in society". The National Credit Bank, along with Most Bank (V. Gusinsky) and Stolichny Bank (A. Smolensky), became a sponsor of the Segodnya newspaper in 1993, but - together with Stolichny Bank - refused to finance the newspaper in 1994.

In 1994, it acquired a large block of shares in Izvestia, but maintains that "the question of political leadership of Izvestia is not an issue...

It is a liberal market newspaper, which suits us quite well in its current form (but, in another interview, he said: "we do not share... its aggressive position on Chechnya, not always constructive criticism of responsible officials"). ... we do not want Izvestia to fall into hands that will begin to manipulate the newspaper. After all, not everyone is as shy as we are."

Sponsored by the magazine "Ogonyok" - together with LogoVAZ (Boris Berezovsky) and "Alfa-Bank" (Petr Aven).

Since 1994, National Credit has become an "agent of federal bodies" - an authorized bank of the Moscow government, but, according to Boyko, "this is a nominal fact, we are the least authorized of all the authorized ones."

He was a member of the Board of Directors of Sberbank of the Russian Federation.

In 1995, the financial position of the economic structures controlled by Oleg Boyko deteriorated. The National Sports Fund (NSF) became the actual owner of the National Credit Bank, and Boris V. Fedorov, a representative of the NSF, replaced Boyko as Chairman of the Board of the Bank

. The bank’s Supervisory Board was headed by the head of the NSF, Boris Fedorov.
The duties of the Chairman of the Board are performed by Alexey Kozlov (he came from the Effect-Credit Bank), his deputy is Sergey Sukhanov (NSF).

In 1996, according to rumors, he left the country. On the other hand, according to B. Fedorov, O. Boyko constantly consulted him on the work of National Credit. The press also reported on a possible meeting between Boyko and the Chairman of the Central Bank, S. Dubinin, regarding the allocation of a stabilization loan for the bank.

In August 1996, the Kommersant-Daily newspaper (28.08.96) reported on O. Boyko’s intention to return to the management of the National Credit Bank by the end of 1996.

He defines his political views as "liberalism", but believes that "democracy must have fists".

He is friends with Boris Berezovsky.

Since 1994, he has been on bad terms with the leader of the Most group, Vladimir Gusinsky, whom he accuses of being behind slanderous, in Boyko’s opinion, publications about the Olbi concern and Boyko himself.

Hobbies: he enjoys playing cards and roulette.

On the morning of January 1, 1994, he was in the White Cockroach club when there was shooting there, and then the police beat up visitors. O. Boyko himself also got it from the police.

The newspaper "Segodnya" claims that Boyko, together with the head of "LogoVAZ" Berezovsky, are the organizers and real leaders of the campaign directed against the mayor of Moscow Luzhkov. In their interviews, both of them do not even try to hide their role in the anti-Moscow maneuvers (we are talking about the purge of law enforcement agencies in Moscow after the murder of the journalist Listyev). The reason, according to the newspaper, is commercial interests: the redistribution of markets, the seizure of budget funds, state contracts, etc. ("Segodnya", 07.03.95).

"Our economic course is basically correct. Of course, both the president and the government are wrong, they need help so that the changes become irreversible. Then no rabid reaction will be able to turn everything back. To do this, it is important to avoid cataclysms, any kind, be it Chechnya or new elections. In my opinion, they should be postponed for a couple of years, because it is clear that as a result we will get a much worse parliament and a much worse president. The current one can be accused of anything, but it is impossible to say that he has fundamentally changed his line.

All entrepreneurs think the same way. At least, I do not know a single one who would be against it. Now it is very important to gain time, this is not my speculation - these are the calculations of macroeconomists. Real fruits appear approximately two years after the beginning of reforms, in our case - this is the beginning of mass privatization, and we have only just begun it. As a result, the market, the labor force should be redistributed, the formation of the middle class should begin, which will entail a change in class relations, habits. And then any elections can be held - everything will be fine."

(From Boyko’s interview with the Kommersant-Daily newspaper on March 14, 1995.)

According to the author of the newspaper "Who is Who" I. Zinchenko, the political demarcation of Boyko and Gaidar looks final only to superficial observers. An unadvertised fact is noteworthy: three of Boyko’s closest associates from the OLBI concern still remain among the ten members of the executive committee of the Democratic Choice: financial director V. Galustyan, deputy chairman of the board A. Grinevich, and executive secretary of the board O. Sultanbekov. Leaving the executive committee, Boyko noted: "I had to cool the ardor of the most radical part of the political council of the Far Eastern Republic. After that, they became more correct."
