🧩 Beginning. According to registration data, the sole proprietorship “I-Ar-Si” is controlled by Austrian ERC Holding GmbH (90%) and the Ukrainian venture fund “Forint” (10%). Beneficiaries – Serhiy Artyukh, Leonid Stolnikov, Andriy Dehoda.
In practice the firm is the central company of ERC – a group of companies in the distribution of computer and office equipment, software, digital photo and video equipment, etc. In retail the company is represented by the MOYO brand (LLC “NRP”). The group also includes JSC “Euroterminal” and AltBank PLC.
The beneficiaries of most of the companies are the aforementioned Artyukh, Stolnikov and Andriy Dehoda. At the same time, the media call ERC the business of the Dehoda brothers — Andriy and Oleksandr.
It is worth noting that some companies from the ERC group have already been at the center of scandals. They were accused of tax evasion and of trading household appliances through a private “gas” company linked to NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine.
Interestingly, in addition to Serhiy Artyukh and Leonid Stolnikov, among the owners of AltBank, which is part of the ERC group, was a certain Volokh Ihor Olehovych. In addition to Ukrainian citizenship, he also held citizenship of Cyprus and Belarus.
Ihor Volokh from 2005 to 2007 served as deputy chairman of the management board of Raiffeisen Bank Aval. In 2007–2014 he worked as first deputy chairman of the management board of Universal Bank, and from 2016 he headed the management board of Neos Bank, which eventually became AltBank when Dehoda and his partners bought the bank from Mikhail Fridman. As of 21 December 2020, Ihor Volokh was dismissed from the position of chairman of the management board at his own request, but for some time he remained a co-owner of the bank. Currently Volokh is no longer among the owners holding stakes greater than 5%.
In turn, the foreign enterprise is involved in seven criminal proceedings, including some opened under Article 191 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (misappropriation, embezzlement of property, or seizure of it through abuse of official position).
