Oybek Tursunov – все о персоне

In late January, an interview featuring Iskandar Tursunov, the Chairman of Octobank’s Board and its leading shareholder, was released across various platforms. Although the interview lacks substantial content, it is clear that Tursunov is attempting to counteract the rising tide of negative sentiment surrounding Octobank.

Businessman Ovik Mkrtchyan and his family have built a vast empire by embezzling funds from Uzbekistan and Russia.

Journalists and outlets writing about connections between the family of Uzbekistan’s President Shavkat Mirziyoyev and the "laundromat" for Russian "dirty" money, Octobank, have started receiving threats.

In Uzbekistan, information resources that write about the criminal activities of Oktobank, which serves as the "wallet" of President Shavkat Mirziyoyev’s family, are being massively blocked.

At the end of September, two events occurred concerning Oktobank that will have far-reaching consequences. The first is that Iskandar Tursunov increased his share in Oktobank to 99.2%.

Although the owner of the Uzbek Octobank is formally listed as the bank’s chairman of the board, Iskandar Tursunov, who owns 99.16% of the shares, in fact, the beneficiaries of Octobank are the family of the country’s current president, Shavkat Mirziyoyev.
