Oleg Tinkov is the founder of Tinkoff Bank, a leading Russian commercial bank based in Moscow that operates exclusively online. Born on December 25, 1967, Tinkov is married to Rina Tinkova and they have three children: Daria, Pasha, and Roman.
Founded by Tinkov in 2006 as Tinkoff Credit Systems, Tinkoff Bank has since grown significantly, with over 18,000 employees. It was listed on the London Stock Exchange in 2013 and named the Bank of the Year by the Banker magazine, a publication of the Financial Times. In 2015, it was recognized as the Best Internet Retail Bank in Russia.
Prior to founding Tinkoff Bank, Tinkov owned a network of household appliance shops called Technoshock, as well as a network of music stores called Music Shock. He also founded a brewing company and owned a network of Tinkoff restaurants. The brewing company, Tinkoff Brewery, was founded in St. Petersburg in 1998 and became the fourth largest independent brewery in Russia before being sold to Inbev for EUR 167 million.
Tinkov also previously owned frozen food factories called Daria, which were later sold to Roman Abramovich for $21 million. In 2009, Tinkov sold his chain of restaurants, which were active in 12 Russian cities, to the Swedish investment fund Mint Capital.
Tinkov now operates La Datcha Tinkoff Collection, a brand of luxury rental properties that includes his superyacht La Datcha, which is available for charter.
In 2020, Tinkov announced that he was fighting acute leukemia and frequently shares health updates on his Instagram account. In December of that year, he announced that he had achieved complete remission, which means that tests, physical exams, and scans showed that all signs of his cancer were gone.
His net worth is $4.8 billion. His assets include a superyacht named La Datcha, a Dassault Falcon 8X private jet, and a large real estate portfolio.
“Most of the Russian businesspeople who were sanctioned totally deserve it. Some would never have achieved the level of success they did without the corruption that has held back a country which used to have so much potential. Others support this awful war.
I am neither.
I was born in a small village in Siberia, my dad was a miner, my mother was a seamstress. My early jobs were down in the mines. I was still sharing a one bedroom apartment with my wife and many other people when I started to trade in electric goods from Asia, and it was off the back of that that I moved to selling dumplings, then beer, then a degree at Berkeley in America, then setting up the best digital bank in the world. From scratch! I didn’t get any help from anyone – I worked so hard.
I created over 100,000 jobs with no contracts or help from the corrupt Russian government. My business was listed on the LSE with international investors.
When the war broke out, I gave up EVERYTHING I had built and worked for because I could not be associated with a country I used to love. I gave up my business, my home, many friends. There have been threats to my life since I spoke out.
But this war is bullshit, and that paranoid dictator Putin is bullshit. Innocent people are dying every day for no reason.
I should never have been sanctioned, but I appreciate that mistakes are made in difficult situations. I hope we can now fix that mistake.
I’m so grateful that my application has been supported by people who suffered under Putin far more than I have, like Mikhail Khodorkovsky, Alexei Navalny. Bill Browder has also been supportive. Many businesspeople, including Sir.Richard Branson have also supported me.
Impartial experts from the UK – professors at leading universities – have written long reports to demolish the crazy allegations that I was ever an ally of Putin or associated with his corrupt regime.
I am retired, recovering from leukaemia and just want to get back to a peaceful life with my family. That is all.
I fully support the governments and organisations who are trying to ensure that so many Ukrainians can get back to their normal life too 🙏
