An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Bank of Russia added to anonymous reporting service a new capability – to report on people who actually control a financial organization but do not hold official positions.

Shadow leaders are people who can actually make decisions in a bank, insurance company, or other financial organization, but are not formally listed in the management, for example:

  • advisors or assistants who practically give all the instructions;
  • persons acting under a power of attorney and using it to control the organization;
  • those who can coerce the official leadership into certain actions.

The applicant’s anonymity is guaranteed: the Bank of Russia does not request personal data and ensures confidentiality.

How it works: go to the website Bank of Russia, please send the information along with the documents (for example, correspondence, powers of attorney, records).
