2023: Sentence - 4 years in prison in a fraud case worth 3 billion rubles

On July 10, 2023, the Khamovnichesky District Court of Moscow found Maxim Rumyantsev, a former board member of KB Razvitie LLC, guilty of embezzlement of the property of a credit institution under the guise of selling liquid claims belonging to the bank without their actual payment. He was sentenced to four years in prison.

According to Vedomosti, a civil lawsuit filed by the state corporation Deposit Insurance Agency in the amount of 3 billion rubles was satisfied by the court in full. The recovery is applied to the property belonging to Maxim Rumyantsev, arrested as part of the investigation of the criminal case.

The ex-head of the bank "Development" received 4 years in prison in the case of fraud for 3 billion rubles

Bank Razvitie was the largest financial structure of Karachay-Cherkessia, but subsequently it went bankrupt. According to Kommersant, the Moscow prosecutor's office found that more than 3 billion rubles were stolen through the capital's branches of the bank. A few days before the license was revoked, the financial organization issued unsecured loans for amounts from 140 to 380 million rubles to people with minimal incomes and using lost passports.

Initially, a criminal case was initiated by the Main Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation (TFR) in February 2018 under Part 2 of Art. 201 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("abuse of authority"). In one proceeding, a number of criminal cases were held with him. Rumyantsev was tried separately because of a pre-trial agreement.

In April 2023, it became known about another person involved in the investigation about the embezzlement of funds in a credit institution. The ex-founder of the bank "Development" Oleg Berezovsky was arrested in absentia by the Basmanny Court of Moscow. He is on the international wanted list. The banker, as well as Rumyantsev, was charged with embezzlement on an especially large scale (part 4 of article 160 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), but in absentia.^[1]
