Alexey Alexandrovich Mordashov (Russian: Алексей Александрович Мордашов; born 26 September 1965) is a Russian billionaire businessman. He is the main shareholder and chairman of Severstal,[1] Russia's largest steel and mining company.[2]
As of March 2022, Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimated Mordashov's personal net worth at US$21.2 billion, making him the second-richest person in Russia.[3] In the Forbes 2021 ranking, which takes into account the assets of the whole family, Mordashov ranks first among Russian billionaires ($29.1B).[4] In the Forbes 2023 rating, the Mordashov family moved to fifth place with a fortune of $20.9 billion.[5]
When he was 37, Forbes ordained him (along with Oprah) as a "new arrival" in the world of billionaires.[6]
Mordashov was mentioned in the Panama Papers and FinCEN files leaks – a company associated with Mordashov paid for a number of Vladimir Putin's pet projects and gave generously to close Putin associates.[7][8][9]
He is under sanctions due to Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine.[2] According to the EU, Rossiya Bank, in which Mordashov owns a financial stake, is the "personal bank" of the senior officials who benefitted from the annexation of Crimea.[2] In November 2023, the New York Times reported as part of the Cyprus Confidential leak that accounts connected to him paid Hubert Seipel, a German author, to write a book about Putin.[10]
