History

2022: FSO IT integrator introduces bankruptcy monitoring procedure

On December 2, 2022, the Federal Security Service (FSO) of FSUE SVEKO introduced a monitoring procedure within the framework of bankruptcy. The relevant information is contained in the file cabinet of the Moscow Arbitration Court.

According to Kommersant, FSUE SVEKO filed its own bankruptcy application on August 9, 2022. Three months later, the court issued a positive decision to recover more than 105 million rubles from SVEKO in favor of Aquarius. As of August 10, 2022, the total amount of creditors' claims was 1.5 billion rubles, the FSUE said in a bankruptcy filing. At the same time, there were only 11.6 million rubles on the accounts of SVEKO.

Experts interviewed by the newspaper explained that the court could prosecute those controlling SVEKO. If the court does not make such a decision, then the outstanding debts at the expense of the bankruptcy estate (assets found at the debtor) will be written off, said Ruslan Petruchak, adviser to the dispute resolution and bankruptcy practice of BGP Litigation.

The director of SVEKO, Victoria Lunina, or another person who has the right to manage the enterprise may be held accountable. In this case, debts can be imposed on individuals who have to repay them out of pocket, said Vadim Tkachenko, founder of the vvCube consulting group.

In November 2022, the Zamoskvoretsky District Court of Moscow sentenced to four years conditionally the former adviser to the head of the FSUE SVECO FSO Mikhail Serov in the case of embezzlement during the supply of office equipment to the Federal Security Service (FSO) to eliminate violations for 49.5 million rubles.

The probability of repayment of plaintiffs' claims in the SVEKO case, as in any other, does not exceed 5%, estimates Oleg Permyakov, partner of the law firm Rustam Kurmaev and Partners. Vadim Tkachenko believes that in the future the number of bankruptcies, including in the IT sector, will grow against the background of a difficult economic situation and problems with the supply of equipment and a shortage of specialists.^[1]
