The CEO of Onexim, an investment vehicle of tycoon Mikhail Prokhorov, has left the board of directors of aluminum giant RusAl, potentially signaling a new round of shareholder conflict at the aluminum producer.
RusAl said Dmitry Razumov, CEO of Onexim, had been replaced on its board by Christophe Charlier, Onexim's deputy CEO, due to other business commitments. Razumov said he did not have any disagreement with the board, RusAl said in a statement.
Onexim's spokesman declined to comment.
Shareholders of RusAl, which is controlled by businessman Oleg Deripaska, are in a dispute over the company's corporate governance and its strategy regarding a 25 percent stake in Norilsk Nickel, the world's largest nickel and palladium miner.

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.
