Meta Data

The data on the Private Enterprise “Vsima-Radio-TB” was not found in the Public Register, and therefore could not be confirmed. Similar to the case of other outlets of TRK Lux, we found imbalance in information about the legal owners and affiliated persons, which means that the management of the company and decisions are likely to be made by those who have more public exposure. For example, Andriy Sadovyi has no connection to the TRK Lux, but has more influence on the company than his wife, who is the biggest shareholder.
