23 Sep 2024 Amsterdam company pays settlement: dividend paid out to oligarch's company €215,000
At the end of 2021, a company based in Amsterdam paid out a dividend of around 18 million EUR to a Russian shareholder behind which there was a sanctioned person, repaid a loan to a listed Russian company in 2019 and did not freeze shares and voting rights; in addition, a gatekeeper was misinformed. In a settlement (transactie) with the Dutch Public Prosecution Service (Openbaar Ministerie), the company paid 195,000 EUR and the managing director, as de facto manager, 20,000 EUR.
Dividends, loan repayments and voting rights vis-à-vis shareholders with a sanctioned owner in the background are also frozen – gatekeepers must know the full structure.
