Mikhail Gutseriyev is back
Mikhail Gutseriyev is back to Russia. And he manages Russneft again!


In May, Russian exiled oil tycoon Mikhail Gutseriyev returned to Russia. For those familiar with situation in Russia this case is indeed unique: for the first time ever such a top level exiled businessman comes back to the country after a «deportation» to London. The prosecutors had criminal cases against him terminated, and even the key asset, vertically integrated Russneft, that he had literally step by step collected, one small producer after another, retail operators, then refineries, all that was returned back to him!
