The politician declared 823.7 million UAH in dividends from the Swiss company Sequent Schweiz AG.
"The dividend payment from the so-called blind trust occurred for the first time in 2024. The reported amount is nearly three times greater than last year's. For comparison: in 2023, the blind trust transferred 329 million UAH in dividends to the MP, in 2022 – 905 million UAH, and in 2021 – only 152.4 million UAH," the publication notes.
Additionally, Poroshenko reported 213 million UAH in income from bond redemptions and nearly 2 million UAH from other sources.
In January 2016, Petro Poroshenko transferred his stake in the Roshen corporation to a blind trust managed by Rothschild Trust.
The aim of restructuring the presidential confectionery corporation Roshen and creating offshore companies was to minimize taxes, rather than transferring the company to a blind trust, as reported by hromadske, based on an investigative report from the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) and "Sлідство.Інфо".
In November 2019, it became known that Poroshenko began to reassign his confectionery business to his eldest son Alexey. This information was confirmed to the publication "NV Business" by the Roshen corporation. The Anti-Corruption Center also released data indicating that as of November 6, the beneficiary of the LLC "Central European Confectionery Company" (CECC) is the eldest son of the fifth president.
The head of Rothschild & Co in Ukraine and the CIS, Giovanni Salvetti, stated in an interview with "NV Business", published on November 14, 2019, that his company no longer manages the assets of the fifth Ukrainian president, Petro Poroshenko.
