Get money, help friends and come up with a new “king of government contracts”: what Igor Shuvalov managed to do in his new position in just a year
Former First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov, who has worked in the government for 10 years, headed VEB at the end of May 2018. Shuvalov was given the task of restarting VEB, which in 2017, despite subsidies, showed a record net loss of 287.7 billion rubles, reports Vedomosti . Shuvalov in the new role turned out to be much more effective than his predecessor, Sergei Gorkov, and this is not surprising - his hardware capabilities and lobbying resources are incomparably greater.
