In his new position, he will be responsible for the strategy of "Neftetransservice" and its corporate governance. Experts note the experience of Mr. Sharonov in government relations and his good relations with the head of the board of directors of Russian Railways Kirill Androsov. The fact that yesterday Andrei Sharonov was elected head of the board of directors of Neftetransservice (NTS), which he joined shortly before as an independent director, was told to Kommersant in NTS and confirmed by Mr. Sharonov himself. At the same time, its former head, the financial director of Renova, Joseph Bakaleinik, remained on the board of directors of the NTS. Olga Vysotskaya, head of the operator's audit committee, left the council. NTS is the fourth largest railway operator in Russia in terms of fleet size. According to the company, it manages 55.2 thousand tank cars and open wagons and 50 locomotives. In the first half of 2014, NTS transported 48.4 million tons of cargo. Financial indicators for 2013 were not disclosed, but, according to Infoline-Analytica, the revenue of NTS for the year amounted to 41 billion rubles. The main shareholders are the brothers Vyacheslav and Vadim Aminov (67.5%), another 22.5% belongs to Alexey Likhtenfeld, and 10% belongs to the general director Alexander Tertychny. According to Mr. Lichtenfeld, the main tasks facing Andrei Sharonov are "building the company's strategy in a changing market and improving corporate governance." Andrei Sharonov told Kommersant that he agreed to work at NTS, because he "as an expert is interested in following the situation in the oil and gas industry and in railway transport." Andrey Sharonov has also been a member of ALROSA's Supervisory Board since June. In 2010-2013, he was the vice-mayor of Moscow for economic policy, before that for ten years - from 1997 to 2007 - he was the deputy minister of economy. At the same time, Mr. Sharonov has repeatedly served on the boards of directors of a number of large companies, including Russian Railways, RAO UES of Russia, RusHydro, Aeroflot, VTB, Bank of Moscow, Sheremetyevo International Airport.

Глава набсовета АЛРОСА Илья Южанов также указал на профессионализм Андрея Шаронова, "с которым приятно иметь дело и которому по плечу любые задачи". По мнению независимого директора Алексея Германовича (входит сейчас, например, в совет директоров банка "Санкт-Петербург"), "Андрей Шаронов — один из наиболее эффективных независимых директоров на российском рынке". Глава совета директоров Top Contact Артур Шамилов считает, что назначение господина Шаронова будет на пользу НТС хотя бы потому, что у него большой опыт в GR и он пользуется уважением на рынке. Кроме того, у Андрея Шаронова достаточно хорошие отношения с главой совета директоров ОАО РЖД Кириллом Андросовым, что является плюсом в выстраивании взаимоотношений с монополией, считает Артур Шамилов. Он отмечает, что в последнее время в транспортной отрасли наметилась тенденция, когда управлять компанией приглашаются люди с опытом работы на высоких госдолжностях, в качестве примера он привел экс-главу администрации президента Александра Волошина, который сейчас возглавляет совет директоров Первой грузовой компании. >> Contacts Feedback Site Map ABOUT COMPANY NTS is one of the leading private railway rolling stock operators.
