The name of the buyer of the stake in the group of companies has been named.
The media found out about the sale of 35% of the shares of the Tinkoff group by entrepreneur Oleg Tinkov. The billionaire, who criticized the special operation of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, decided to get rid of his stake in the TCS Group, which owns Tinkoff Bank, Tinkoff Insurance and other assets.
It turned out that the shares were acquired by Vladimir Potanin’s company Interros.
Oleg Tinkov himself confirmed that he got rid of assets in a bank named after him.
According to Tinkov, he and his team built the best bank in the country from scratch – “the best digital bank in the world and based in Russia.” Tinkov is proud of this achievement.
“Now it’s time to retire and take care of health and family,” says Oleg Tinkov.
The head of MMC Norilsk Nickel, Vladimir Potanin, also confirmed the deal and noted that it is beneficial for everyone. Interros is interested in Tinkoff continuing to occupy a leading position.
The businessman said that the company’s investments and the unique experience of Tinkoff managers will be “a good impetus for the further development of the group’s business.” All this will lead to a modern and high-class service for its customers.
Recall that Oleg Tinkov has been fighting cancer for several years, is being treated abroad and complained that there is no database of bone marrow donors in Russia. The billionaire decided to invest 200 billion rubles in this and create it from scratch.
After criticizing the special operation of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, Oleg Tinkov tried to disown the bank and covered customers with obscenities.
As a result, as Topnews wrote, the Russians launched a challenge and began massively destroying bank cards.
Soon there was news that the management of Tinkoff decided to change the name of the bank and wished Oleg Tinkov health. The sale of assets of TCS Group Tinkov was associated with his statements.
