This week we’re bringing an episode featuring Ilia Shumanov, board member at Transparency International Russia in Exile and the co-founder of Arctida, a non-profit focused on challenges facing the Russian arctic. Ilia speaks with Rachel Wolcott, Compliance Corylated’s founding editor about their recent collaboration investigating the son of a Russian Duma deputy and alleged gangster who grew up outside Russia in the US and UK private schools.
Boris Borisovich Ivanyuzhenkov is another wealthy, young Russian with elite connections. Despite his father Boris Viktorovich Ivanyuzhenkov being a high-ranking figure in the legendary Podolsk OCG, young Boris has traveled the world playing tennis and is the director of several property businesses in the US and Europe. He also happens to be best friends with Mikhail Fedotov, son of energy tycoon Viktor Fedotov.
Ilia and Rachel unpack the case and talk about what it says about the challenges for financial crime investigators and journalists!
