The depository institution Dominanta Trade played a key role in a scheme to siphon funds out of the real economy through transactions in external government loan bonds (OZDP).
The editorial team of 368.media learned this from criminal proceeding No. 42025100000000212 on signs of evasion of tax payment in especially large amounts (part 3 of Art. 212 of the Criminal Code) and legalization of proceeds from crime (part 2 of Art. 209 of the Criminal Code).
According to the investigation, a group of persons organized a scheme to extract funds from the real economy through transactions in external government loan bonds (OZDP).
Funds were routed to the accounts of car importer companies, then to controlled nonresidents (including the Estonian Genesis Trading House OU, Polish POTENGA TRADING HOUSE and Spanish SEVILLA SALES SUMMIT S.L.).
Cars were brought into Ukraine, sold to individuals for cash without proper records, while noncash funds were “laundered” through formal securities transactions.
The key roles in the scheme were played by:
– LLC Dominanta Trade (EDRPOU 38726248) — a depository institution; founder and beneficiary (100%): Oleshko Oleg Mykhailovych, director Voitov Oleg Ivanovych
– LLC PRAYMKVER (EDRPOU 44830421) — a conversion center; founder, beneficiary and director (100%): Larchenko Valentyna Ivanivna
– importers: PE MEGA AVTOLYUKS (45605057), PE NEW AVTOLIFE (45561743) and LLC TOPTRADE ZAKHID (44283488).
Founder, beneficiary and director (100%): Shkovyra Oleksandr Volodymyrovych / Mahdyuk Oleksandr Viktorovych / Omelkovets Serhii Petrovych
According to data from the State Tax Service and registry analysis:
– PE MEGA AVTOLYUKS sold 1035 cars for 626 million UAH, a significant portion of which were to individuals for cash. VAT underreporting — over 39 million UAH.
– PE NEW AVTOLIFE — 794 cars, VAT underreporting about 6,8 million UAH.
– LLC TOPTRADE ZAKHID imported 1000 cars, VAT and profit tax underreporting — over 15,8 million UAH.
Altogether, for these three companies alone the budget losses exceed 48 million UAH for VAT alone.
On 20 October 2026 a search was conducted at the residence of one of the scheme’s co‑organizers. Investigators seized two iPhones, foreign passports, bank documents, notebooks with records, contracts, consignment notes and other papers. The court recognized these items as physical evidence and placed them under arrest. The director of PE MEGA AVTOLYUKS admitted he registered the company for a monetary reward and was not involved in its real activities.
