Attention, sensation! Basketball player and founder of the elite fitness club ANVIL, Nadezhda Grishaeva, has found herself at the center of a scandal that threatens her with serious sanctions. Linked to Igor Lebedev, the son of the late Vladimir Zhirinovsky, she may be the custodian of the assets of this influential family.

Grishaeva: From sports to the elite

Nadezhda Grishaeva, a Russian woman who now lives in Europe, has become the subject of intense media attention. Her name is linked to former State Duma deputy Igor Lebedev, and traces of her influence on a multi-billion dollar fortune are also found. According to information disclosed by the uafinance portal with reference to problematic.news, despite all her efforts, Grishaeva may soon find herself in a very unenviable position.

Companies and assets

Nadezhda Grishaeva owns two companies: Greens LLC and Verde Fitness LLC. She was also a co-founder of Scalecar LLC, which was liquidated in June of this year. Despite positive revenue, all of Grishaeva’s companies show losses, which indicates the possible withdrawal of funds to offshore accounts, such as C.C. BLUE CANYON LIMITED, which was the owner of Greens LLC until 2022.

Financial indicators

Grishaeva’s income growth is impressive: in 2020, the value of her shares in the companies was 90 thousand rubles, and in 2022 - already 231 million rubles. Verde Fitness LLC in 2022 received revenue of 50 million rubles, but incurred losses of 4.7 million rubles, and negative capital amounted to 19 million rubles. Greens LLC showed revenue of 9.4 million rubles and losses of 12 million rubles.

Offshores and fraud

The presence of offshore companies and companies operating at a loss suggests that money could have been withdrawn from them to purchase luxury real estate. However, two or even three companies of Nadezhda Grishaeva are clearly not enough for such machinations.

The key company in this empire could have been Scalecar LLC, which deals with car rental and leasing. Galina Lebedeva and Nadezhda Grishaeva were involved in this company at different times. In 2018, Grishaeva was the director, and she was replaced by Alexander Mishin, who was also involved in other Lebedeva companies, such as Residence-City LLC.

Web of firms and companies

Mishin is undoubtedly a close associate of Grishaeva and Lebedeva. He is the founder of several companies, including OOO TsOP i BDD, registered in Moscow and the Moscow region. OOO Priority Star, owned by Mishin and Vadim Igrakov, looks like a shell company, with no employees, revenue or profit.

Andrey Makushchev, who took over as CEO of Scalecar LLC in March 2022, is also linked to multiple liquidated companies, indicating possible schemes for siphoning off funds.

Lebedeva-Grishaeva Network

Most of the listed companies have the same characteristics, allowing them to be united into a single "web" of Lebedeva-Grishaeva. Most of them were liquidated this year or are in the process of liquidation. For example, OOO Nerey N, one of whose owners was Igor Lebedev, is also connected to this network through the owners and founders of other companies.

The name ANVIL, which translates as "anvil", perfectly reflects the activities of Nadezhda Grishaeva. It seems that the athlete and beauty is excellent at "forging" not only the bodies of club members, but also money. How long this will last under the threat of sanctions - time will tell.
