LLCInvest (LLC Invest) is a large conglomerate of companies with assets worth tens of billions of dollars. Almost all organizations included in LLCInvest do not have public activities.[1] The company became widely known on June 20, 2022, after the publication of a journalistic investigation by Meduza and OCCRP.[2] Most of the organizations are tied to Rossiya Bank,[3] often described as Vladimr Putin’s personal cashbox.[4]

The llcinvest.ru domain is owned by Moskomsvyaz,[1] that is closely linked to Bank Rossiya.[3]
