Did any one saw Pavel after Covid? I saw one peeling potatoes in movie called “Boy is stripped Pyjamas”. I’m am Pavel, Dr Pavel , you are explorer
Alex Krainer wrote a good book on it. Martin Armstrong knew Safra and was asked to 'invest' in Hermitage. Andrei Nekrasov did a documentary on him, Phil Giraldi has also analysed him.
William Browder and Hermitage were a front for the Jewish mafia, Browder had Mossad bodyguards. Browder worked for Edmund Safra, the banker to organised crime across the globe, HSBC eventually bought Republic National Bank of New York. Putin went after him for obvious reasons, you can't have such a clique having a decisive impact on the Russian economy. There really is no comparison with this current dispute.

Tiger - don't leave just yet. So Hermitage went down because they tried to get between officials and their pay offs, according to the western media. Meshcheryakov went poking into records (of payoffs?) at a Moscow subsidiary and is now being looked at by a federal investigation group headed up by Putin.
He wouldn't pull that one again, would he? I seem to remember there was a lot of fallout after Hermitage.
It will be interesting to see how the half year results are presented, positively or negatively as they are due any day now!
Yes tiger let's not forget the audit... looks like the management are hell bent on destroying a god company or they are on purpose doing this to loser the share price so their buddies can load up... we all know where gold is heading
Hi Working Stiff!
I don't invest in Russia as a rule. (I occasionally dabble shortish term in Poly and TSG, but always with an awareness of the risks involved).
Fluent Russian and 25 years working in the Wild East has taught me way too much about these things. It's not the crime itself, it's who is doing the investigating that is the big red flag here. To give you an idea, there are only probably a couple of dozen oligarchs or Kremlin figures who have the power to launch such a legal attack. As for not being able to do it to large scale Western investors, yeah, sure, Hermitage Capital.
For those who think this is tripe, good luck with your investments.I've not got a dog in this fight, so I'll leave you to it now.
This is a media campaign orchestrated by Pavel and friends aimed to scare foreign investors. I think all those little Russian shareholders who bought shares on the Moex would probably have enough sense ignore this tripe , as should you.
TigerByTheTail - what an appropriate name for someone who invests in Russia!
I looked at what I could find on Article 330 of the Russian criminal code - Arbitrariness. From what I could see it doesn't appear to be a particularly serious crime, and one which is normally levelled against an individual(s) rather than an organisation.
I don't think this will be the knockout punch, but accept that it could be the start of a campaign.
I "Raiderstvo" is pretty fanciful thinking. You might be able to do that to a Russian oligarch/owner but not to large multinational companies like Blackrock and others . Meshcheryakov doesn’t personally own POG.
Hi WorkingStiff!
Thanks for providing the definition for those who don't understand.
Pavel's not nearly a big enough fish to get the Investigative Committee to do his bidding like this. That's reserved for only the top oligarchs in full favour with the regime. IMO, the squabbling has attracted the interest of a powerful third party, who sees an opportunity to make claims on some / all of POG's assets. (Remember, the outcome here will quite likely be the legal separation of POG's Russian assets and subsidiaries from the topco. We're not talking about a takeover in a Western sense. More a seizure.)
This is Russia - "the strong take what they can and the weak suffer what they must" (as Herodotous wrote a long time ago).
Strukov v Pavel - The battle of the Russian Titans.
Please place your bets on who will win this fight.
Share price is a bargain at this level.
Raiderstvo is the Russian version of corporate raiding. It can include the use of physical force and/or corrupt collusion with state institutions for the purpose of gaining control of a company, either to take it over or to strip its assets.
If this is what is happening - is this someone new? is it Strukov inspired - completing the task he set out on in the summer? Or is it Pavel, back off the canvas for round 3?
If POG's corporate affairs is still functioning them major holding RNS's might tell us something in the next few days. Or we may just see the shares hoovered up by anonymous Cypriot shell companies.
iPhone Is destroying me today. Just read my message to see that my iPhone has put it in a blender. Hopefully, you can read around the rubbish it changed my post to.
The share price is since entering the Moscow exchange the regulators were warned of this greedy group of people and the tactics they are using to take control. In Russia this is more than a warning to anyone putting there hands in.
I can see this flipping back to the old management next year and like many before these guys accepting an increase on what they paid and moving on. Will it be the last greedy bunch trying to buy it out, who knows.
Smart move would be to request the old management return and the basis of a merger or use of the POX with a reasonable profit for both POG and UGC. Also retaining some good shares in POG to benefit also. Only problem is I do not view think as a greedy billionaire who thinks the money going to one person is better than a lots benefiting.
Positive in my mind
Just another negative thrown in to keep the share price down for someone’s benefit I suspect.
For those unused to Russian "biznez", this morning's RNS is truly a bad sign.
Behind all this is "raiderstvo" - someone very powerful wants the assets and has their hand firmly pressed down on one of the scales of justice.
No use trying to understand it as there are always two sides to every story. Maybe in another 12 months we will get to know what really happened.
Having trouble understanding this mornings RNS? The RNS appears to be slanted and ambiguous? As far as I can see the Board has done nothing wrong? Some employees maybe prosecuted however?
