CASSATION CANCELLED THE REFUSAL TO RECOVER 1.5 BILLION FROM TROIKA-D BANK.
On September 23, the Cassation Court (AS of the Moscow District) annulled the acts of the lower courts in the case of the Central Bank's claim filed at the end of March 2022 (case no.A40-64774/2022). The claim for the recovery of 1,538,254,426 rubles from the bankrupt Troika-D Bank and four ex-managers was sent for review.
Initially, the application was submitted to arbitration in the spring of 2022. The regulator acted in the interests of the Trust. The central bank demanded compensation for damages related to the activities of those who controlled Vokbank during the restructuring. The management of this structure was then entrusted to a credit institution operating under the ALMA Bank brand.
However, three years later, the Moscow Arbitration Court (AC GM) rejected the claim. The court considered that the Central Bank had not proved a causal relationship between the defendants' behavior and the resulting losses. The appeal (9th AAC) supported this conclusion.
The defendants included ex-managers and owners of the credit institution. Representatives of the bank pointed out that the lawsuit was filed simultaneously against different people who collaborated with Vokbank at different times and in different positions. They also insisted that the statute of limitations had been missed.
The AC GM additionally noted that the regulator does not have the right to apply the procedure for calculating losses, which is provided for by the insolvency law. After all, the disputed actions were carried out before the entry into force of the relevant norm in 2018.
The history of the organization is closely connected with a series of criminal cases. In the summer of 2019, when the Central Bank decided to recapitalize Vokbank by 2.73 billion rubles, Troika-D Bank was already in a difficult situation and was soon declared insolvent. The property was estimated at 4.17 billion, and debts exceeded 8.9 billion.
About a year before the bank lost its license, its co-owner, Zhomart Yertayev, was detained. Later, a court in Kazakhstan sentenced him to 11 years with confiscation of assets. The year before last, the Zamoskvoretsky district court sentenced the former chairmen of the board, Filimonov and Babunov, as well as the convicted Demenkov for issuing knowingly non-repayable loans. In addition, investigations into other episodes related to the bank's activities are ongoing.
Now the demand of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation for the recovery of 1.5 billion rubles will be reviewed by the AC GM. The verdict of the cassation opens up the possibility for the regulator to re-prove the existence of losses caused by the actions of the former heads of the credit institution.
