  + stars: | 2023-10-02 | by ( Elliot Smith | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Billionaire LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault has hit back at allegations of money laundering, after the Paris prosecutor's office confirmed it is investigating financial transactions between Arnault and Russian oligarch Nikolai Sarkisov. In a statement, Arnault's attorney, Jacqueline Laffont, said the allegations were "absurd and unfounded." The investigation, seemingly under way, will demonstrate these facts," she said in an emailed statement over the weekend. "Furthermore, who could seriously imagine that Bernard Arnault, who has developed over the past 40 years the leading French and European company, would pursue money laundering to expand a hotel? I believe the senseless nature of these allegations will be recognized by all."

As the subjects of a preliminary investigation, neither Arnault nor Sarkisov are suspects and neither has been accused of wrongdoing. The investigation, apparently ongoing, will not fail to prove this.”“Besides, who can seriously imagine that Mr Bernard Arnault, who has built the leading French and European company over 40 years, would engage money laundering to expand a hotel?” Laffont added. CNN has contacted Tracfin and Sarkisov for comment. LVMH is once again Europe’s biggest company by market capitalization, after being briefly dethroned last month by Danish drugmaker Novo Nordisk (NVO). Arnault’s company encompasses luxury fashion and drinks brands such as Louis Vuitton and Moet & Chandon.

☆ Deal targeted by probe involving LVMH's Arnault was legal, lawyer says
  + stars: | 2023-09-30 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
PARIS, Sept 30 (Reuters) - A financial transaction under investigation in France involving LVMH owner Bernard Arnault was carried out in full respect of the law, his lawyer said on Saturday. The Paris public prosecutor's office confirmed on Friday that it is investigating financial transactions involving Arnault and Russian businessman Nikolai Sarkisov. In France, a prelimary investigation does not necessarily imply wrongdoing by those concerned, for whom the presumption of innocence applies. An unidentified Tracfin official told Le Monde the transactions involving Arnault and Sarkisov, who both acted through a complex web of legal entities, could have been aimed at concealing the origins of the funds used.

Fostul preşedinte francez Nicolas Sarkozy, judecat deja pentru corupţie şi trafic de influenţă pentru că și-ar fi finanțat campania electorală cu bani de la fostul dictator libian Muammar Gaddafi, este vizat acum de o nouă anchetă pentru trafic de influență, dar de data aceasta pentru presupusele sale legături cu niște oligarhi ruși, scrie digi24.ro. Parchetul Naţional Financiar (PNF) din Franța a confirmat pentru AFP că a deschis o anchetă preliminară pentru trafic de influenţă vizând activităţi de consiliere în Rusia ale fostului preşedinte Nicolas Sarkozy. Procurorii au în vedere și o eventuală acuzație de spălare de bani în scop infracțional. Nicolas Sarkozy ar fi primit deja o plată de 500.000 de euro în baza acestui contract, la începutul lui 2020, conform Mediapart. Potrivit Mediapart, AXA este un important client al cabinetului de avocatură Realyze, co-fondat în 1987 de Nicolas Sarkozy.
