Chubais Reveals Love for BMW

Rusnano CEO Anatoly Chubais is the first of all officials and managers of state corporations to publish this information. To conform with a presidential decree, all managers and board members of state corporations must report their income and assets.

Chubais owns an apartment in Moscow with total area of 175.8 square meters and two parking spaces totaling 30.6 square meters. Together with his wife Maria Vishnevskaya, Chubais owns a rather large (almost 1.5 hectare) site in the Moscow region. The plot has a house and outbuildings with total area of more than 2,000 square meters.

Judging by the report, Chubais is an admirer of BMW. He and his wife own two cars of this brand: the off-road X5 and the 530 XL sedan. We can assume that the SUV is entirely new because last year he sold a 2004 issue of the same model for 1.5 million rubles ($50,000). The CEO also has a Yamaha snowmobile and trailer.

The Rusnano director’s annual income last year was nearly 202.7 million rubles, of which most was income from securities and participating interests in commercial companies (176.5 million rubles). At Rusnano, Chubais earned nearly 13.2 million rubles in a year.

Chubais’ wife last year made nearly 22 million rubles. This is despite the fact that she does not receive a salary from anywhere, but rather thanks to income from securities and participating interests in commercial organizations, as well as income from bank deposits.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
