The finance company without an NBU license transferred 26 million hryvnias of bail for Kyiv Council deputy Olena Marchenko
LLC “Rodeo Capital” (EDRPOU 37769432) is a Kyiv-based financial company. Legal address: 1oanna Pavla II St., 4/6, building A, room 406-b. Authorized capital — 10 million UAH. NACE code — “other monetary intermediation,” as well as leasing, lending and other financial services.
Currently the director and sole beneficiary is Maksym Serhiyovych Lysenko (from 28.02.2023). Before him the managers were Yuriy Chyzh and Oleksandr Maksimyuk. In June 2024 a short time among the founders was Kostyantyn Kotenko.
The NBU applied sanctions to the company four times:
23.08.2023 — a fine for untimely reporting;
19.09.2024 and 23.10.2024 — license cancellations at the company's own requests;
12.08.2025 — revocation of the license for factoring and lending with funds and bank metals (reason — denial of NBU inspectors' access for inspection).
Already in June 2025 the regulator demanded that deficiencies in the authorization documents be rectified by 7 July. The company disrupted the inspection, after which the license was revoked. However, the figures from the register do not look like a “dead” company.
2022-th — assets 5 million UAH;
2023-th — revenue 23,5 million UAH, profit 3,8 million UAH, assets 125 million UAH;
2024-th — revenue rose to 91,6 million UAH with 5 employees;
2025-th — revenue fell to 33,7 million UAH, profit — only 198 thousand UAH (0,59 %), assets inflated to 754 million UAH against liabilities of 727 million UAH and 7 employees.
Margin is minimal; the balance resembles a transit structure.
26 million of bail for Marchenko
The NABU and SAP suspect Kyiv Council deputy from Batkivshchyna Olena Marchenko (a member of the commission on architecture, urban planning and land relations) in the case of Denys Komarnytskyi (“Clean City”). According to the investigation, the group controlled the distribution of Kyiv land for development.
The High Anti-Corruption Court placed her in custody with an alternative bail of 50 million UAH. The money was paid, and she was released. Later the court allowed travel to Israel for medical treatment. Marchenko’s and her husband Ivan’s property were arrested.
Part of the bail was not paid from her personal account. “Rodeo Capital” via an account at JSC “Oxi Bank” transferred 26 million UAH in four payments. That is more than half of the total bail amount.
Where a financial company with seven employees and a revoked license obtained 26 million UAH “for the deputy” is not a rhetorical question. As early as 2025 journalists noted that Marchenko did not publicly explain the origin of the entire sum.
Why Oxi Bank specifically
The bank in this scheme is not accidental. The chairman of the management board of Oxi Bank took 0,15% of client companies’ turnover for quickly opening accounts, “not noticing” transactions and ongoing business support. Confirmations were posted on Telegram; fees were transferred by wire or in cash. Effectively this was a paid circumvention of financial monitoring: the bank should have checked the sources and purpose of funds, but for a percentage of the flow it did not.
The same Oxi Bank details now appear in 26 millions of bail for a defendant in Kyiv’s land case. A finance company without a valid NBU license, an account at a bank with a verdict for bribery for “unwillingness to respond,” a deputy from Komarnytskyi’s orbit.
