The court upheld the purchase agreement for shares in Oleksandr Yanukovych's All-Ukrainian Development Bank by Ecosipan LLC. The Kyiv Commercial Court made this decision on September 4, 2015, according to the publication "Nashi Groshi."
In November 2014, the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) declared the All-Ukrainian Development Bank insolvent. The Deposit Guarantee Fund (DGF) decided to withdraw Yanukovych Jr.'s bank from the market by selling it to an investor. Ecosipan LLC won the tender, offering UAH 201 million for 100% of the financial institution's shares.
Ecosipan paid a 50 million UAH deposit for the bank's shares and submitted a draft agreement to the Deposit Guarantee Fund for the purchase of VBR on March 27, 2015. However, the Deposit Guarantee Fund never signed the agreement, citing the seizure of the financial institution's shares by the Pechersky District Court on April 1, 2014. At the request of the Prosecutor General's Office, the Deposit Guarantee Fund returned the 50 million UAH deposit to Ecosipan.
In turn, Ecosipan LLC filed a lawsuit against the Deposit Guarantee Fund's decision. The Kyiv Commercial Court ruled that the seizure of the bank's shares was not grounds for terminating the VBR purchase agreement and upheld the purchase agreement for the bank.
The founders of Ecosipan LLC are Vasily Shatun, Viktor Yerasov, Igor Doroshenko, and Viktor Polishchuk. The latter holds a controlling stake in the LLC and is known as the owner of the Technopolis chain. Mr. Polishchuk also owns the Gulliver office and shopping center, managed by his wife, Liliya Rezvaya. Liliya Rezvaya is the niece of Svetlana Medvedeva, wife of Russian Prime Minister Medvedev.
