enterprises and organizations (8.4% of all legal entities). At the end of 1997, 131,000 enterprises remained in federal ownership (5% of the total number of legal entities), including 13,000 companies

It is at least better than the reasonable, efficient in all respects and free model of privatization, which remains the model.”

“At the end of 1991.

There was not a single country with a system of institutions that would set standards and ensure their implementation in Russia. This was a huge robbery of government property. It was impossible to stop. This is why there is a simple dilemma: either this process has been implemented in legislative framework- for example, they get the maximum benefit from three privatization options, or in a few years it will prove that nothing is privatized. It is likely that the chosen structure was not always the most successful; the system of criminal punishment for violations was very weak.

rivals

Uneasy relations with Chubais with the chairman of Rosenergoatom Oleg Saraev, as well as MDM SUEK (fuel supplier for power plants).

From an interview with Chubais, the weekly Kommersant.

Money ":" For example, it is known that I do not have a simple relationship with the current owners - the team of Abramovich and Deripaska, but compared to the previous owners - this is simply a qualitatively different level in terms of fundamental ethical values, depending on how the company, and in each specific case from the point of view of the general level of culture.

And the reason for these qualitative changes, in my opinion, is simple: Black’s style was no longer meant in Russian reality. "

Roman Abramovich and Oleg Deripaska represent a real perceived threat, as they actively oppose the restructuring of RAO UES of Russia and the buyout of its shares.

We would like to control a significant share in the Russian energy sector. In 1999-2000. Deripaska was a partner of Chubais, with whom the Sayany Energy and Metallurgical Company OJSC was formed on the basis of the Sayano-Shushenskaya and Siberian Aluminum hydroelectric power stations.

However, Deripaska and Abramovich merged aluminum assets, which did not agree with Chubais - he did not want to engage in an abstract entity that was still called Rusal. After this, Deripaska and Chubais manage almost constantly.

All former competitors of Chubais in the government of power to remove the cook of fuel and energy Viktor Kalyuzhny, Minister of Atomic Energy Evgeny Adamov refused, Deputy Minister of Energy Viktor Kucheryavyi, Governor of the Primorsky Territory Evgeny Nazdratenko won.

He replaced 80% of the leaders of regional energy systems, who were everywhere personally loyal to Chubais.

Regional governors are afraid of the dependence of the region's economy on RAO - all areas must have energy, and a crisis could occur at any moment.

personally

According to colleagues, “Chubais is pragmatic, on the one hand, and on the other, he is a very simple person, he never gave it up under any circumstances.

This is his absolutely rigid principle - no one can say that he worked with Chubais, but he replaced him. "

This is in a different law. His wife is Maria Davydovna Vishnevskaya. From the first marriage, son and daughter: Alexey (1980) and Olga (born 1983).

He likes water tourism, he adores the nature of Karelia and Kamchatka with its geysers and volcanoes.

Chubais does not want to talk about his personal life.

He has no close friends. The closest of them is Yegor Gaidar, whom Chubais greatly respects and whose friendship he cherishes. He is friends with Mstislav Rostropovich, although he was often not found due to Chubais's work and constant trips to Rostropovich. Particular mention should be made of Bulat Okudzhavi - despite the age difference, Chubais and Okudzhava were very close.

By the way, there is an opinion that Okudzhava’s last song was written before his death, dedicated to Chubais.

Mother - Raisa Efimovna Segal(according to other sources, Raisa Khaimovna Sagal, 1918−2004) was an economist by profession and was involved in raising children.

Chubais is the real name of Anatoly Borisovich. The surname Chubais is of Latvian origin.

Anatoly was the second child in the family. His older brother - Igor Borisovich Chubais(b. 1947) - Doctor of Philosophy, Professor of the Department of Social Philosophy at RUDN University.

Anatoly’s childhood was filled with the hardships of life as children of military personnel, although, as his brother Igor said, Chubais’s father, a lieutenant colonel, had an above-average salary. “They never died of hunger and never lived in poverty,” said Igor Chubais in an interview with KP.

He began his studies in Odessa, where his father was then serving, then continued his studies in Lvov, and in the fifth grade, little Chubais went to school No. 188 with military-political education in Leningrad. As Anatoly Borisovich admitted, he hated his school.

Despite the fact that Anatoly Borisovich Chubais, as a child, often listened with interest to the conversations of his father and brother about politics and philosophy, Chubais was more inclined towards the exact sciences, and therefore entered the Leningrad Engineering and Economic Institute. In 1977, Anatoly Borisovich Chubais graduated from the institute with honors. In 1983, Chubais became a candidate of economic sciences. Anatoly Chubais began his career at the same university, working first as an engineer, then as an assistant, and finally as an assistant professor.

Anatoly Chubais - career as a politician

Anatoly Chubais became a member of the CPSU in the late seventies, and in the mid-80s Anatoly Borisovich and his supporters created the informal Perestroika club, actively conducting economic seminars. Chubais was attracted to democratic ideas, which the future politician dreamed of disseminating among the broad masses. At these seminars, Anatoly Borisovich met Egor Gaidar. This acquaintance played a role in his future career as a politician.

The biography on Chubais’s website also notes that in 1979-1987 Anatoly was the leader of “an informal circle of ‘young economists’, which was created by a group of graduates of economic universities in the city.”

However, Anatoly Chubais was convinced that the transfer of control over enterprises with hundreds of thousands of workers to the oligarchs helped them acquire administrative resources, which prevented the victory of the opposition Communist Party in the 1996 presidential elections: “If we had not carried out mortgage privatization, the Communists would have won the elections in 1996 "- admitted Chubais in an interview Financial Times in 2004.

However, the voucher, which, according to Anatoly Chubais, had the price of “two cars,” was rapidly depreciating. Speculation in vouchers began in the country, and people sold them for next to nothing, as they were completely impoverished. Chubais himself later wrote in a book about the importance of the “propaganda component” in the privatization story.

“The removal of obsolete capacities is a fundamental task of the electric power complex, while there is a possibility for this, because the reserve will end by 2023-2024. It is necessary... to sharpen completely new mechanisms of contracts for the supply of power for global modernization, for which, God bless, we have another 5-7 years, in order to properly use the reserve of capacity that the energy reform created,” Chubais was quoted as saying in the news.

Entrepreneur Dmitry Lerner wrote an appeal to the RF IC addressed to the head of the department Alexandra Bastrykina, demanding that a case be opened against Chubais as well.

Chubais’s statement in December 2015 that they simply have “a lot of money” caused a lot of noise. “The first thing I wanted to say is: we have a lot of money! There are quite a lot of them.
