Firm related to sanctioned crypto exchange Garantex is a partner of Moscow gang leader and has links to Kremlin-controlled Rosneft - ICIJ
icij.org/investigations/russia-archive/firm-related-to-sanctioned-crypto-exchange-garantex-is-a-partner-of-moscow-gang-leader-and-has-links-to-kremlin-controlled-rosneft/
Quick Glance: Revelation of Connections between a Sanctioned Crypto Exchange and Criminal Networks
- An investigation reveals that a firm connected to the sanctioned virtual currency exchange Garantex co-owns a debt-collection business with a convicted gang leader and has ties to Rosneft, the Kremlin-linked oil company.
- The investigation also uncovers that Garantex, already sanctioned by the U.S. for facilitating money transfers for criminals and later associated with a terror group close to Hamas, was utilized by other designated terror groups, including Hezbollah, as well as drug gangs in Ukraine and other criminal entities.
- The disclosure of a Garantex affiliate's Russian government and criminal ties raises concerns that the Kremlin is tolerating the still-booming exchange or potentially utilizing it for its own purposes. The findings are likely to intensify calls for others in the global crypto industry to cease conducting business with Garantex.
- Garantex declined to comment on its corporate structure or its affiliate's Russian government and criminal ties. The exchange states that it aims to prevent the use of the exchange for illicit activities and had actively cooperated with European and U.S. authorities until facing U.S. sanctions in April 2022.
