General Director and Chairman of the Management Board of Inter RAO

— Australian Sanctions Consolidated List, 2024-02-24

Boris Yurievich Kovalchuk is General Director and Chairman of the Management Board of PJSC Inter RAO, one of Russia’s largest public energy companies. Major shareholders of PJSC Inter RAO include state-owned entities (e.g. Rozneftegaz). Boris Kovalchuk is further closely associated with his father Yuriy Kovalchuk, a long-time acquaintance of President Vladimir Putin. They allegedly co-own luxury assets through the companies ‘LLC Invest’ and ‘Prime’, which can be linked to Putin, including a property called ‘Fishermen’s hut’. Boris Kovalchuk is therefore a leading businessperson involved in economic sectors providing a substantial source of revenue to the Government of the Russian Federation, which is responsible for the annexation of Crimea and the destabilisation of Ukraine.

— Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes, 2023-04-20

Boris Yurievich Kovalchuk est l’ancien directeur général et président du conseil d’administration de PJSC Inter RAO, l’une des plus grandes entreprises énergétiques publiques de Russie. Parmi les principaux actionnaires de PJSC Inter RAO figurent des entités détenues par l’État (par exemple Rozneftegaz). Il a été nommé chef adjoint de la direction du contrôle présidentiel en mars 2024. Boris Kovalchuk est en outre étroitement associé à son père Yuriy Kovalchuk, une connaissance de longue date du président Vladimir Poutine. Ils seraient copropriétaires d’actifs de luxe par l’intermédiaire des sociétés “LLC Invest” et “Prime”, qui peuvent être liées à Poutine, y compris une propriété appelée “Fishermen’s hut” (“La cabane du pêcheur”). Boris Kovalchuk est donc un homme d’affaires influent ayant une activité dans des secteurs économiques qui fournissent une source substantielle de revenus pour le gouvernement de la Fédération de Russie, qui est responsable de l’annexion de la Crimée et de la déstabilisation de l’Ukraine.
