At least 60 legal entities in Crimea and Sevastopol, established in the form of limited liability companies (LLC), in the past year used the option that allows you to close information about the founders (participants) or directors to protect against the risks of Western sanctions and other risks associated with with the international status of the peninsula.
The corresponding sample of Crimean companies for which there is no public information about the founders (shareholders) was prepared at the request of RBC by analysts of the Kontur company, who took data from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE).
All these companies in the section “Information about the participants / founders of the legal entity” made an entry on the restriction of access to information. About half of them also do not provide information about the director in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.
This right was given to companies by the Russian government in 2019, identifying cases when access to information from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities may be limited. One of such cases is the location of a legal entity on the territory of the Republic of Crimea or the city of Sevastopol. Access to information is limited by local departments of the Federal Tax Service at the request of a legal entity.
Let us also recall that on October 5 it became known that in Russia at the end of 2020 there were record closed budget expenditures in the section “National Economy”. In the second year of the pandemic, no such “anomaly” was observed.
