Chuvash big business: how local “kings” and Russian oligarchs divided the region, leaving them with chocolates. Ivan Motorin is the richest official in Chuvashia Gazprom Mezhregiongaz Cheboksary: ​​how Alexey Miller was offended by the billions of dollars in debts of Chuvash companies

The story of the Chuvash businessman ended as Pravda Volga Federal District predicted. Over the past three years, the once largest developer in the republic has lost control over almost all of its assets - Mega Mall, MTV Center, MegaGalaxy and the future Mega Hall - as a result of their bankruptcy and transfer into the hands of creditor banks. And in March 2018, citizen Nikolai Mikhailovich Gerasimov himself became bankrupt. Observers note that this is a rare case when a businessman has no one to blame for his failures but himself. About how the business empire of Nikolai Gerasimov came to a natural collapse, and what does Auchan, IKEA and VTB24 Bank, which generally did not issue loans to the businessman, have to do with it, in the material of Pravda Volga Federal District.

Pravda PFO has at its disposal a fresh ruling from the Arbitration Court of Chuvashia declaring Gerasimov bankrupt. The resulting document was preceded by a demand from the applicant, Bank St. Petersburg, for 107 million and a request from the debtor’s representative to postpone the consideration of the claim due to Gerasimov’s desire to personally attend his own bankruptcy case, which was impossible at the time of the court hearing due to the businessman’s illness. The debtor's petition was rejected, Gerasimov was declared bankrupt, a debt restructuring procedure was introduced against him, and the next arbitration hearing was scheduled for July 10. Appointed financial manager of the debtor Andrey Enkov from Saint-Petersburg. Gerasimov himself, whom Pravda PFO reached by telephone, refused to comment on the information about his bankruptcy.

From the materials of the arbitration case, it becomes clear why the bank needed to declare Gerasimov insolvent as an individual. The fact is that in 2012, the entrepreneur acted as a guarantor under a loan agreement between Bank St. Petersburg and TK Nikolaevsky for a total amount of up to 160 million. The agricultural market, which was managed by Gerasimov, was unable to repay this loan, and at the end of 2015 At Nikolaevsky, a bankruptcy supervision procedure was introduced.

During the proceedings, the creditors got to the unfortunate guarantor: St. Petersburg filed a lawsuit against Gerasimov back in December 2016, the businessman fought like a lion in court for more than a year, and, nevertheless, lost.

Although, if we take the situation as a whole, then Gerasimov’s bankruptcy as an individual is only the final point of the collapse of the businessman’s empire. For the developer, who back in 2013 was the rightful owner of Mega Mall, MTV Center, MegaGalaxy and then plans to build the unprecedented Mega Hall shopping center worth about 10 billion, starting in 2014, began to lose assets one after another .

“Mega Mall” came out of the actual control of the businessman back in 2015-2016, when the businessman’s creditors from Petrocommerce Bank, which later became part of the Otkrytie group, began to control the financial flows of the shopping complex. On March 1, 2018, Gerasimov’s departure from business at the Mega Mall was legally secured: an Otkritie protege was elected as the new general director of Everest CJSC, the management company of the shopping complex. Alexander Ivanov.

Another asset of the businessman, MTV Center CJSC, which managed the shopping and entertainment complex of the same name on Ivan Yakovlev Avenue in Cheboksary, was declared bankrupt in November 2017 for a debt of 77 million rubles with assets of 14.8 million. The plaintiff in the case was the Leasing Company "St. Petersburg" is a subsidiary of the bank.

At the final stage of the proceedings, Gerasimov tried to start the liquidation process of MTV Center CJSC and even appointed himself as the liquidator of the company - but the court overturned this decision. A St. Petersburg resident has been appointed bankruptcy manager of MTV Center Sergey Kovalev, a meeting of the company’s creditors is scheduled for April 6 in St. Petersburg, the next court hearing will take place on April 9.

Bank St. Petersburg itself bankrupted an asset that was supposed to become the main diamond in the crown of the businessman MTSORT LLC, which managed the former territory of KhBK, on ​​which the businessman planned to build the Mega Hall complex. Gerasimov’s main debt in the amount of about 700 million also hung there. “Pravda Volga Federal District” already stated that “Mega Hall” got out of the businessman’s control at the end of 2016, despite the developer’s attempt at the last moment to repaint himself as a builder and a project on the site of the future complex residential area "Mega City".

The trick did not work: in July 2017, a monitoring procedure was introduced at MTSORT LLC, and in November the company was finally declared bankrupt.

In general, it is in the Mega Hall project that observers are inclined to see the reason for the collapse of the businessman: Gerasimov invested in an adventure worth about 10 billion in a falling market. The head of Chuvashia created additional difficulty for the entrepreneur Mikhail Ignatiev, who first convinced the businessman, with promises of support, to purchase the Nikolaevsky shopping center after the murky stories from the time of his own leadership of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic, and when the deal took place, he wished the businessman good luck in all his endeavors and waved his hand.

Ignatiev acted in a similar way with the Trans-Volga base “Burevestnik”: Gerasimov acquired it for the future gasification of the Trans-Volga region, which.

Nikolai Gerasimov asks a question to Mikhail Ignatiev at a meeting of the head of the region with businessmen in October 2017

And yet, it was under “Mega Hall” that Gerasimov pawned everything he had. And the project was plagued by failures almost from the very beginning. Auchan was one of the first to refuse to participate in the adventure; the Swedes from IKEA could not understand for a long time why the developer considered the agreement with them a done deal, because “Mega Hall” was an obvious non-format for them. Gerasimov was finished off, oddly enough, by a bank that did not give him loans at all. The anchor tenant of the Mega Hall was supposed to be VTB24 with its service center for 1,500 jobs, but at the last moment the bankers chose the First Site for location.

Actually, on the day VTB24 announced the severance of relations with Gerasimov (ironically, exactly April 2, 2014), it became clear that the developer had lost his business. What happened next was a matter of time, although it took a long time: big empires take a long time to collapse.

Now the businessman’s former assets are divided among banks. In the Mega Mall, as already mentioned, Otkrytie rules the roost, and in the MTV Center - Bank St. Petersburg. It is obvious that banks do not have the slightest incentive to manage and develop retail: their job is to find a buyer for assets as soon as possible and close holes in their own balance sheets. And in some places it has already been possible to find buyers: for example, “MCORT” was managed by structures close to the entrepreneur (ELBRus group of companies) at least until the end of 2017, and further expansion of the businessman is possible in this direction.

Different winds are now blowing in the corridors of the Mega Mall

Under Gerasimov’s management, the crumbs of the former feast remained: the Everest car market on Marposadskoye Highway and the Trans-Volga recreation center Burevestnik, and the status of the MegaGalaxy entertainment complex and the Nikolaevsky shopping center is still unclear. And Gerasimov’s bankruptcy is not the last bad news for the region’s business elite. According to Pravda PFO, clouds are hanging over another major businessman in Chuvashia, whose creditor is one of the largest banks in Russia. So it makes sense to wait for soon news.

In addition to the richest, we traditionally talk about the poorest, those whose official annual income is in the range of 100-200 thousand rubles. Is it possible to live on 8-12 thousand rubles a month? As you can see, it is possible - Cheboksary deputies show this by their own example.
