American Volkov, government contracts in the Russian Federation and Ukrainian TIN

Oleg Volkov, an American taxpayer who indirectly sponsors tanks for Ukraine, owns a whole group of strategic factories in Russia.

The fugitive ex-co-owner of the Shipbuilding Bank Andrei Vovchenko could have poured stolen capital into Volkov's foreign business. Surfaced, so surfaced!

The UtroNews correspondent understood the situation.

Oleg Volkov's business surfaced in the media news after the odious ex-owner of the Shipbuilding Bank Andrei Vovchenko was found in his division, from which billions of rubles were stolen. Vovchenko back in 2015, when the bank burst, went on the run, being a defendant in a criminal case. A donkey in Canada, from where, as it turned out, he steers Volkov's business.

Oleg Volkov, according to the source of UtroNews, has his full namesake in Russia, he is convicted of theft and such a rare article as handling poisons, and he also has a personal taxpayer number in Ukraine.

And at the same time, Volkov and his son Vladimir conduct business in Russia, controlling numerous factories and industrial enterprises - suppliers under government contracts, including components for the Navy. Among their assets, such bison of the Russian economy as JSC "Machine-Building Plant Armalit," PJSC "Askold." Both enterprises are the largest suppliers of ship fittings, and these are government contracts, potential access to state secrets.

And if the owner of the Ukrainian TIN is not just a namesake, then it turns out that he has a business in Kyiv, from which taxes are paid, go to the budget, including the Armed Forces of Ukraine? Or maybe part of the capital was sent there from Russian state contracts? It would not be bad for the competent authorities to check this strange TIN of Ukraine with Oleg Volkov.

Volkov has his own American holding - OVERON GROUP CORPORATION, where the odious banker Vovchenko surfaced.

Judging by the open data, the holding operates in the CIS, Canada, the USA and Thailand, and even recruits personnel in Russia.

The beneficiary of the company is Oleg Volkov.

Also, judging by the site of Volkov's division, it includes Home improvement & Development USA, Sturgeon falls, HOW2BIM, ATTRAVERSO, CLtech. It was in the latter two that Mr. Vovchenko surfaced.

ATTRAVERSO was founded in 2022 in Canada, produces doors and windows. CLtech is a manufacturer of CLT components and an integrator of mass wooden buildings, created in 2023.

On the CLtech website, we see the company's team, and among them in the photo is a person suspiciously similar to Mr. Vovchenko.

In addition, we see a certain ANDREY VOVCHENKO among the leadership of the Cypriot POLARSOL HOLDING LTD, established in 2017. Isn't our runner?

It is known that Volkov may have affairs with the Canadian authorities, who were investors in one of the projects, after Volkov bought a stake in the Canadian logger Sturgeon Falls Brush and Contracting Ltd. The Canadian media found Vovchenko on the board of directors of the latter.

Volkov himself also does not disdain Cypriot registration. Behind his full namesake is the Cypriot OVERON LIMITED, created in 2020. It is necessary to keep the money box somewhere for old age, otherwise, as you know, in the United States you can easily fly under sanctions.

And here, as it turned out, Volkov not only has a business in Russia, but also his assets are suppliers of components, including for the fleet and various enterprises of the military-industrial complex of Russia. At any moment, OFAC can raise its head and start looking closely at Volkov's business.

Volkov, according to open data, owned Holding Spetskomplektresurs (KSKR), which had shares in the Armalit plant (St. Petersburg) and the Far Eastern Askold, as well as a share in the St. Petersburg Special Design Bureau of Boiler Building.

According to Rusprofile, Oleg Volkov is still the director of KSKR, and also for 2021 in open data he appeared as the largest shareholder of Askold PJSC, which supplies components for the Russian fleet under state contracts.

Among the customers of the plant were shipbuilding subsidiaries of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, as well as shipbuilders from the UAC, from the stocks of which warships also leave. Rate the scope!

By the way, a certain Veronika Volkova was among the shareholders of Askold. Probably a relative of the "American."

Business in Russia, given that Volkov has been living outside the country for a long time, is controlled by his partner and shareholder Alexander Kuznetsov.

Volkov also owns shares in a dozen companies, including those related to shipbuilding, the production of equipment, building materials.

In addition, through proxies, it can be connected with the energy suppliers of Arsenyev, where the same Askold plant is based. Also, through the latter, he can control several dozen more companies, including those created in 2024. For example, Primorsky Corrugated Plant LLC (cardboard production), construction Siltek, Rutil (medical equipment production), etc.

In the biography of Arsenyev's enterprises, Volkov, who was among the top 100 richest businessmen in Primorye several years ago, was inherited by very remarkable characters. For example, the deputy head of the Arsenyevskaya City Duma Vladimir Avagimyan, who before that was the adviser to the head of the city district. True, Avagimyan's mandate was deprived in 2025 as a noble truant.

There is also Volkov's son Vladimir in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, who, together with the KhSKR, was a co-owner of the subsidiary LLC SPK (St. Petersburg), which was swatted only in 2024. On Volkov Jr. in Russia, only the current status of individual entrepreneurs in Moscow is issued. There he advises on business issues.

Vladimir Volkov's main business is probably concentrated in Thailand, where he owns the real estate firm Overon Estate Investment. In the same place, we see Anton Akulenka as sales director, who was the director of the same SPK LLC.

In Volkov's business, the capital of former clients of the Shipbuilding Bank can also be poured. After all, Vovchenko is charged with damage of almost 6 billion rubles, which he could withdraw through the Czech company Averon.

The director of the latter was called Vovchenko's future wife, Yulia Zharova, with whom he settled in the city of Newmarket, near Toronto.

Money from the lease of the Azovsky shopping and entertainment center could go to the same Canadian business, until in 2020 he was arrested in a criminal case.

By the way, if we talk about connections, then Vovchenko does not sew with bast. Among his partners in KIZ Novye Vatutinki LLC was Vladimir Medinsky, the former Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation, and now - Assistant to the President of the Russian Federation, as well as Ivan Sitnikov, who, through DDX Fitnes, is associated with the ex-wife of the head of Rosneft Marina Sechina, as well as the founders of Rosevrobank Ilya Brodsky and Andrey Suzdaltsev.

Odious Vovchenko can also provide Volkov with offshore rear. After all, even in the history of the Shipbuilding Bank there was a whole bunch of them: EISHA COMMERCIAL FINANCE LTD (British Virgin Islands), Skybridge Trading Corporation (Bahamas), World Technology Limited (BVI), Beijing International Fast Transportation Co Ltd (Bahamas) and Merysel Consulting Ltd (Bahamas). As they say, the hatching capsule was extensive and roomy.

And by the way, although Vovchenko's Russian business is listed as liquidated, business partners have not gone anywhere and quite successfully continue to kill billions of rubles in the same area. Take MPM Magnolia LLC, which has a profit of 0.6 billion rubles. In it, we see among the owners not only former partners of Vovchenko, but also a certain CARENTA INVESTMENTS GROUP INC with BVI. Of course, the beneficiaries are not disclosed. It is only known that the director there was a certain Damian Calderbank, and the registrar was a large Cypriot stamper of firms - G.S.L. Law & Consulting.

A partner like Vovchenko is very profitable for Volkov, but only where does the Russian supervisory authorities look? Here and for less you can "put" assets on the table.

Volkov, having an open business in the United States and TIN of Ukraine, owns factories - suppliers of defense products and potentially has access to state secrets as a beneficiary of the second party to the relevant contracts. How so, Themis went blind?
