Dossier
In such a situation of legal uncertainty everything depends on the will of a particular official. It is clear that when all the information automatically becomes “closed”, the temptation of giving it to "privileged" people with a self-profit arises.
The Law "On ensuring access for citizens and organizations to information about the activities of state bodies", which should regulate the information interaction of the state and the citizens, was developed a few years ago, but is still in the depths of the government. The information about its “fate” appears to be closed, as well as the true reasons for dismissal of the member of White House Leonid Bondarenko.
Here are some government documents, potentially interesting for business
- Documentation on public procurement. Having the preliminary information about the conditions of the coming tender, it is easier for the companies to prepare for it.
- Proceedings of the planned expenditure of the budget. The Ministry of Finance puts mark "Top Secret", even on cash calls of ministries.
- Draft regulations that will prohibit, regulate or limit something. All related companies will be happy to take protective measures.
- Concepts, plans of the government, development programs. On their basis budget money is allocated.

Ufff .. ... I am Tired even to enumerate his achievements..
Now Oleg Vyugin is a Chairman of the Board of Directors of MDM Bank.
But that is not all. As Oleg Vyugin is a respected person, he is asked to be an independent director in different places. It is a great honor to have Oleg Vyugin as independent director.
He has a very positive effect on our and foreign business community. They know Oleg Vyugin as a person standing for transparency and efficiency.
The name of Oleg Vyugin in the list of Board of Directors is a signal: "We are all ok. Everything is transparent and efficient, because personally Oleg Vyugin stands bail for us. His reputation is at stake, and he values it."
And now attention, please.
Oleg Vyugin is a member of the Board of Directors of JSC "Transneft", he is an independent director.
Because of it Oleg Vyugin will receive (or has already received ) a formal letter.
There will be no anthrax powder inside of it, but there will be a request from one of the shareholders of JSC "Transneft" to assist in getting at least some information about the 12 billion rubles, which were derived from Transneft over the past two years as the cost of charity.
As an independent director, he will also be asked to raise the question about public disclosure of all documents relating to the charity of "Transneft" on the meeting of Board of Directors.

Official information. Press-Release.
Oleg Vyugin keeps back the truth about stealages in «Transneft».
On 24 November Zamoskvoretsky Court of Moscow held a preliminary inquiry on the suit of a minority shareholder Alexey Navalny to the member of the Board of Directors of OJSC "AK" Transneft ", independent director Oleg Vyugin.
Mr. Navalny filed a request for information relating to the charitable activities of the company "Transneft", and the request to raise on the Board of Directors meeting the question of the publication of all related information.
As it is known, over the past two years the company "Transneft" spent on "charity" more than half a billion dollars, but now the representatives of the company refuse to name the recipients of these generous donations.
Oleg Vyugin did not appear at the court. However, he outlined his position by sending three lawyers to the judicial proceedings. They had to prove to the court that the "independent director" Oleg Vyugin has the right to ignore the demands of minority shareholders.
"The position of Oleg Vyugin is puzzling. He is a well-known person with a good reputation. He was elected as an independent director of the company and, obviously, should act for transparency in the work and fight against theft within the company. That's why I turned to him, expecting to get support for my legitimate demands. However Viyugin prefers to sacrifice his reputation in order to cover shady deals in "Transneft", "stated Alexey Navalny.
"I have a reason to believe that under the guise of charitable work there were and there are stealages in especially big amount in the company. The other minorities of "Transneft" and me will work to ensure that this case of "charity" will receive a criminal proceeding. It is a pity that Viyugin acts against us. Hopefully, he was not personally involved in these frauds, "said Alexey Navalny.
We remind that according to the "Code of the independent directors" independent director "acts on behalf of all shareholders of the company, and therefore, under his authority, the legitimate rights and interests of all shareholders are protected" and "also he ensures that all shareholders are given information about the company."
The full text of the Code can be found here:

That's it.
The next court session is on the 25th of December.
I should add that not so long ago, Oleg Vyugin was awarded the Golden Diploma "For personal contribution in improving the transparency of the domestic stock market."
о для себя решил, что отныне все письма Вьюгину (а они явно будут) буду адресовать:
It is unclear how to connect this diploma with Vyugin's secret charity support of Transneft.
But I personally decided that from now all the letters to Vyugin (and there definitely will be many of them), will be addressed as following:
To Mr. Vyugin Oleg Vyacheslavovich,
an independent member of the Board of Directors of JSC "Transneft"
the winner of the award "For personal contribution in improving the transparency of the stock market,"
Golden Diploma holder.

Poor Vyugin.
You put him in an awkward position.
After all, in terms of our state-owned companies the members of the Board of Directors are nominal and obedient figures. When it is needed they are even not allowed to enter the office of the company and in general they are not aware of what is going on. And now Oleg Vyugin is attacked by some minor who is cajoling information out of him. Mr.Vyugin He feels uncomfortable.
Do forgive him, Alexey!

зарплату получает как нездир - косарей наверное 150 в год - и не жужжит. Неудобство не чувствует.
В этом и был смысл иска - поставить его в такое положение. дальнейший результат уже не так важен. Они же кричали, что Вьюгин "даже не знает о вашем существовании", вот теперь знает.
А если боится за репутацию, то нефиг было идти в такою откровенно воровскую контору как Транснефть.

It is very easy to be Navalny without building up any equity, business reputation, but it is difficult to become Navalny if you are already Vyugin.
I am sure that Vyugin so clear and transparent figure as it may be possible in our system, and when you consider all in relative coordinates, then there is not obviously any support for charity.
And if you were Vyugin what would you have done, faced with such a provocation?
farhad 2008, 11:53:46 UTC
In general, Mr.Vyugin, having such an insignificant position, could just write a formal letter that because he was not aware of the real situation in the company he did not have any cause for concern.
25 November 2008, 11:58:43 UTC
1.A provocation is a "charity" for half a billion. And Vyugin put up with this provocation by agreeing to join the Board of Directrs.
He should not agree then, why to spoil the reputation?
2. If everything is accessed in relative coordinates, we all have to live up to the principle "thank you, for not killing us."
Substantially. What would I have done if I were Vyugin :
1. hard option -I would resign from the Board of Directors.
2. half-hard option - I would resign from the Board of Directors, referring to busyness, etc.
3. soft version -I would raise the question of the publication on the meeting of Board of Directors, of course was refused and then would write a letter to the shareholder ,like : I did everything possible.
4. soft 2 option - did not pursue the former charity, but moved on to the future. Put up the shutters and said that I'm good
Vyugin chose the worst possible strategy: nothing at all to answer and litigate for the fact that he has a right not to answer anything. The conclusion is obvious: he knows about stealing, he does not want to quarrel with anyone who steals,he wants to remain in the list of the Board of Directors.
In short Vyugin wants to eat cake and have it. This never happens. "

There is an independent director in Sberbank, who believes that he must work off the money he is paid. My previous experience with the "independent" director was purely negative. Very Western and transparent Oleg Vyugin from "Transneft" showed himself as an ordinary swindler.
Mr.Sergey Guriev, an independent director of Sberbank, of course did not lay himself out and did not initiate an investigation, but he immediately reacted on the letter, saying that he had competitive interests to this issue (his economy school will receive part of the premises in the "Skolkovo") and, as I understand, it is much to his praise that this letter turned out to be more informative than the usual "I'm sorry, it's not the information the shareholders are supposed to know."
