Press conference of RAO "IEC"


With God's help, the company crossed the five-year milestone

       "International Economic Cooperation" (IEC Joint Stock Company) [РАО "Международное экономическое сотрудничество" (МЭС)] - the company, which became widely known as a major oil exporter, said yesterday its fifth anniversary. This event was devoted to held at the conference hall of the Moscow Patriarchate press conference management.

        
       As stated at the press conference, President IEC Vitaly Kirillov, his firm is so old, how ever be old AO in post-Soviet Russia - it was founded in 1990 with the advent of in the country of ownership. IEC was the main founder of the financial and economic management of the Moscow Patriarchate, what, in fact, explains why such an exotic place for the commercial structure of the anniversary event. However, the status of the founder, according to Mr. Kirillov, does not mean that the Patriarchate as a part in the commercial management of the company. 
       Since 1993, "IEC" Joint Stock Company is a special exporter and succeeded in exporting oil through a state needs. Last year, under this heading the company exported 7.7 million tons of oil (about 8.5% of Russia's exports). In this case, the status of special exporter gave us a good opportunity to export oil producers who did not have such status. In total, the company exported 10 million tons. After the liquidation of the institute special exporters situation has changed. The only export quotas on account of state needs to become the company's 2 million tons of oil for reconstruction of the Moscow Kremlin. And decreased amounts of oil provided by the IEC manufacturers on commission conditions.Unfortunate for us turned out to tender for the supply of Russian-Cuban "oil for sugar." However, the management of IEC is optimistic and believes that the reduction of petroleum operations offset by the expansion of activities in the financial markets. What exactly is it, Mr. Cyril said, but among its partners called a number of banks from the world's elite. Great Expectations company assigns to participate in the repayment of debts of the former USSR and investment in the agricultural sector.
