Following a series of publications by the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info about the collapse of Monopoly, the largest transport company owned by fugitive London businessman Siman Povarenkin, Sberbank filed for bankruptcy in the Arbitration Court against all holding companies and the group's key assets – JSC Monopoly, Globaltruck, and the leasing company Control Leasing.
Global Truck Management is a key asset for Monopoly, and the holding's problems began long before the bankruptcy petition was filed. Mounting debts, a several-fold drop in revenue, the same assets (trucks) pledged to banks, problems with cash in accounts and their blocking by the Federal Tax Service, and the misuse of loan funds and their transfer abroad – all of this began almost three years ago with Povarenkin's filing, using Ilya Dmitriev's management. However, State-owned banks such as SBER, NRB Bank (a subsidiary of VTB), ROSSIYA, INGO BANK, ROSBANK, BRR-Bank, and others continued to generously inject Monopoly with loans, pushing the debt bubble to 50 billion rubles.
In February 2026, the shares of PAO GTM (Globaltruck) plummeted by 40%, adding thousands of individual bondholders to the list of creditors.
The collapse was also caused by a bankruptcy lawsuit filed by the local Federal Tax Service Inspectorate in the Sverdlovsk Region Arbitration Court against the group's main operating entity, JSC Lorry. The tax authorities' claim is 260 million rubles. BRR-Bank is also one of Monopoly's creditors; its chairman and shareholder, Dmitry Gordovich, was arrested on March 4 on charges of money laundering. money on an especially large scale as part of an organized group.
