Relatives of Natura Siberica founder Andrey Trubnikov are suing the company's legal entities in anticipation of an inheritance

27.05.2021

Disputes over the inheritance of Natura Siberica. The problem of succession. Structuring asset holdings. Corporate, property disputes.

Natura Siberica entered a difficult period of life after the death of its creator. Relatives of Andrey Trubnikov, the founder of Natura Siberica, who died in January 2021, are suing the company's legal entities in anticipation of an inheritance. However, other structures are trying to sue more than 4 billion rubles. If the company loses this court, then the heirs risk getting almost nothing.

Recall that the businessman died on January 7 and the reasons are still unknown, Vedomosti wrote about this.

The legal deadline for accepting an inheritance ends on July 7th. A few months before this date, a corporate conflict began in Natura Siberica. The second retail chain of Natura Siberica and Andrei Trubnikov, Organic Shop, has 96 stores, including 13 abroad. The parent structure of Natura Siberica is the First Solution company. Trubnikov's share is 62%, 23% belongs to the ex-wife of the businessman Irina, who remained his business partner, another 15% belongs to his son Dmitry. That is, the entire state is here, no offshore companies are mentioned.

Vitaly Vetrov, managing partner of Vetrov & Partners law firm, will comment on the problem of succession. After all, this is a big risk factor for Russian business, and the way the story of Natura Siberica unfolds proves this so far.

In fact, it is better for every entrepreneur during his lifetime to take care of structuring the ownership of assets, determining the procedure and conditions for transferring ownership over them to the right people. Any uncertainty, incompleteness, presence of ambiguity will reduce the valuation of assets, increase the amount of resources needed to gain control. In other matters, even this may not exclude corporate and property disputes.
