Igor Ivanovich Shuvalov is an experienced politician who devoted many years of his life to state activities. AT different years Igor Ivanovich served as assistant to the president and head of the federal property fund, served as first deputy chairman of the government. Shuvalov has established himself as a skilled and tough manager, however, as is often the case, political biography Igor Shuvalov turned out to be ambiguous.
Childhood and youth
Igor Shuvalov was born in the village of Bilibino, in Chukotka. Igor's parents, native Muscovites, at that moment worked there under a contract. Shuvalov went to school in the Far East, but he graduated from school already in the capital. In 1984, the future politician tried to enter the country's main university, but unsuccessfully, and in 1985 the young man was called up for military service.
After serving, in 1987, Igor again submits documents to Moscow State University. This time, Shuvalov is enrolled in the so-called workers' faculty, and a year later Shuvalov becomes a university student, choosing the Faculty of Law. In 1993, Igor graduated from the university and went to work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Politics
In the same year, Igor Shuvalov goes to work at ALM-Consulting, a newly established legal center. This work brings the future Deputy Prime Minister a lot of useful acquaintances among businessmen and politicians, for example, with Oleg Boyko, and. Igor Shuvalov provides assistance as a lawyer and eventually becomes a co-founder of a number of serious companies. In 1997, with the assistance of a serious businessman, Shuvalov was appointed head of the department of the state register of federal property.
Igor Ivanovich receives the right to represent the interests of the state and the government in financial organizations such as Rosgosstrakh and others. In the same year, Igor Shuvalov became a member of the board of directors of the Sovcomflot organization, and some time later, a member of the board of ORT. Igor Shuvalov's career is rapidly going up: immediately after his resignation, he takes the place of the head of the Federal Property Fund, on which he will last for many years. In addition, Shuvalov will continue to represent the interests of the country in Gazprom, VVTs and other large organizations.
In 2000, Igor Shuvalov was appointed to the post of head of the government apparatus. Information appears in the media that this happened not without the participation of Roman Abramovich and Alexander Voloshin (then head of the presidential administration). In his new post, Igor Shuvalov proved himself to be a tough and demanding leader. The official repeatedly said that it was necessary to improve the quality of work of subordinates, however, unlike many newly-minted bosses, he was not going to change the personnel structure of the structure. Shuvalov really managed to normalize the work of the government apparatus - new regulations were introduced, work was automated (under Shuvalov a common computer base appeared, which greatly facilitated the work of officials).
Gradually, the ambitious official acquired new powers, controlled all incoming documents, and eventually became an almost unofficial deputy prime minister with unlimited possibilities. The subsequent dismissal of Igor Ivanovich is associated, in particular, with the fact that his personality began to pose a danger to many political figures of that time, including for. The year 2003 was marked for Shuvalov by new appointments. Igor Ivanovich became an assistant to the head of the country, and then a deputy, who at that time headed the presidential administration.
In 2005, Shuvalov became the president's personal representative at the G8 summit, and a year later he became deputy chairman of the organizing committee of this event from our country. In December 2005, Shuvalov literally forced the Federation Council to abandon the law "On Subsoil". As part of this bill, it was proposed to transfer the minerals of the regions to the jurisdiction of the “feds”. Also, at the insistence of Igor Ivanovich, the issue of access was revised foreign citizens to the development of deposits in the territory of the Russian Federation. Nevertheless, a year later, the law was still adopted.
2006 in Shuvalov's career turned out to be devoted to work outside of Russia: Igor Ivanovich represented the country at an economic forum in the UK, and also helped prepare the next G8 summit in the French capital. In April 2006, there was a rumor in the media that Vladimir Vladimirovich was dissatisfied with the way Shuvalov and his team prepared the text of the traditional message to the Federal Assembly, but this information was not confirmed and in no way affected Igor Ivanovich's career.
Meanwhile, events in political arena flowed at their own pace. In 2008, Dmitry Anatolyevich came to power. The first decree of the new president was the appointment to the post of prime minister. He, in turn, appointed Shuvalov first deputy chairman of the government. Igor Ivanovich's duties included overseeing state policy in the field of foreign economics, trade, and tariff and technical regulation. Shuvalov also took upon himself the provision of support for small businesses from the state. In 2009, Shuvalov got the duties of the national coordinator for issues related to the CIS.
Public attention was attracted by Shuvalov's speech in September of the same year. Igor Ivanovich said that Russia needs a new structural privatization and corporatization of state assets. According to the politician, this measure should help reduce the lack of funds in the budget. Another serious issue that was marked for Igor Ivanovich in 2009 was the alleged entry of the Russian Federation into the World Trade Organization (WTO). It was originally planned that Russia would join the WTO in commonwealth with Belarus and Kazakhstan, but later Medvedev insisted on the countries' separate entry into the world organization.
Shuvalov headed the negotiating group. The result of hard work in reconciliation necessary conditions was the decision of the Russian side to join the WTO outside the framework of a single customs union with Kazakhstan and Belarus, but politicians stressed the need to create a joint market between these countries. At the beginning of 2010, Igor Shuvalov became the head of the commission in the field of economy and integration, created instead of six previous commissions on the same issues. In the same year, Shuvalov managed to obtain permission for Russia to host the next World Cup.
Initially, analysts gave disappointing forecasts about the country's chances for a positive decision of the commission: an insufficient number of stadiums, transport problems, as well as a lack of high-class hotels - all played against Russian Federation. However, thanks to the efforts of Shuvalov and his team, the country's application was answered positively. According to preliminary estimates, this event will cost taxpayers more than the Olympics in Sochi.
Igor Shuvalov continued political activity as Deputy Prime Minister until May 2018, he was actively involved in the problems of privatization, urban planning and foreign relations of the Russian Federation with other countries. The politician stated:
“The Russian Federation does not claim any kind of global leadership, so we feel happy and will be very satisfied if, in the formats in which we are now not allowed to fully develop, we still return to the foundations of the existence of these institutions.”
On March 18, 2018, Vladimir Putin won again. After taking office, Vladimir Putin offered the post of prime minister to Dmitry Medvedev. May 18 was announced to reporters. Igor Shuvalov did not retain his position.

Whether First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov has a noble origin, genealogists are still arguing. But Count Shuvalov or not is not so important. He has a retinue without a title ...
Kolodkin for a career
In fact, the profession Igor Shuvalov the most promising one: he is a lawyer by education, graduated from Moscow State University and even trained in the States. Therefore, after graduating from the university, I went to work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where one of the departments of the legal department at that time headed Roman Kolodkin, with whom Shuvalov quickly became friends.
- And Kolodkin was a friend and classmate of businessman Sanya Mamut, in free time they regularly played football together. And when Igor's son was born and he wanted to find a more profitable job for himself, Roma recommended him to Sanya, - Mamut's old friend told the Interlocutor.
Thanks to the work in the company Alexandra Mamuta "ALM Consulting" Shuvalov made his first millions and made his first connections.
Soon, other equally influential businessmen appeared as friends with the official: Oleg Boyko (when Boyko once fell from the second floor of his villa in Monte Carlo, Shuvalov immediately flew to his hospital), Alisher Usmanov (an official even gave him a loan of 50 million USD) and Roman Abramovich (in Skolkovo near Moscow, their estates are located next door). And Roman Kolodkin, thanks to whom Shuvalov eventually made it to the vice-premiership, was appointed on November 5, 2009, the Russian ambassador to the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
If a friend is Boos
When the governor of the Kaliningrad region was still George Boos, Igor Shuvalov personally visited the region, but not on a working visit, but for the christening of Boos' youngest daughter.
By that time, officials were tied not only by friendly, but also by financial interests. As Sobesednik found out, in 1997, Svetotechservice-AT LLC was established in Moscow, the list of co-founders of which includes the names of both. True, Boos acted in business as a senior partner with an authorized contribution of 12,300 rubles against the symbolic Shuvalov hundreds.
After his resignation as governor, Boos was unemployed for a year until a friend invited him to head the board of directors of the All-Russian Exhibition Center. Remember, the Kremlin had such a whim - to ban officials from heading commercial companies? Here is Shuvalov, who previously headed the All-Russian Exhibition Center, and gave up his office to Georgy Boos, reserving the functions of the curator of the exhibition center.
However, at the beginning of this summer, Boos left this post as well. Now he heads the board of directors of the thermal power holding MRSK. Recently, the Federal Tariff Service proposed measures to limit the growth of tariffs in this area, but Boos officially sent a letter to Shuvalov asking him to reject these measures. Shuvalov, of course, supported his friend.
Sailed out on Timchenko
Shuvalov's man in the government is also considered Alexey Volin, deputy Minister of Communications. Given that the minister himself, 30-year-old Nikolai Nikiforov, has a reputation in the industry as a "wedding official", we can say that the Ministry of Communications through Volin "belongs" to Shuvalov. In the early 2000s, Volin worked as his deputy in the government apparatus and spoke of his boss to Sobesednik with the most lofty words:
- He never timed his arrival and departure from work. He himself came by 8 am, and I by 11. And there were no problems.
Shuvalov also has warm relations with another Deputy Prime Minister, Arkady Dvorkovich, whose wife is a businesswoman Zumrud Rustamova, also at one time worked for an official in the backswing.
The entourage of the First Deputy Prime Minister also includes Alexander Braverman , CEO of the Federal Housing Development Fund (they worked together at Rosgosstrakh, and now Shuvalov is lobbying for the financial interests of RHD), Farit Gazizullin, a member of the board of directors of Gazprom (Shuvalov worked under him at the Ministry of State Property), and Sergei Frank, the head of Sovcomflot (whose board of directors the official also managed to visit and now defends the idea of privatizing this company).
The son of Sergei Frank, Gleb, is married to the daughter of the co-owner of the Gunvor group and friend of Putin, Gennady Timchenko. At the same time, Timchenko has a common business with the family of Andrei Vorobyov, head of the United Russia Duma faction, so Shuvalov is an insider in all echelons of power.
By the way, officially Igor Shuvalov is registered at the address: Moscow, Academician Zelinsky Street, house 6. For those who don’t know, Putin, Kudrin, Chubais and Co. have the same stamp in their passports.
Wife earned 38 times more
Last year, Igor Shuvalov earned 9 million 606 thousand rubles, his wife Olga Shuvalov a - 364 million 964 thousand. According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, Shuvalova's name is associated with Arbatauer LLC (wholesale trade and financial intermediation) and Zarechye-Development LLC (owns land in the Moscow region). At the same time, the general director of Zarechye-Development is Ekaterina Muratidis, business partner of the oligarch Suleiman Kerimov (another Shuvalov's neighbor in Skolkovo).
Shuvalov has four children - 2 sons and daughters Maria (b. 1998) and Nastya (2002). Zhenya Shuvalov (1993) was friends with the children of Abramovich, Aven and Jordan at school, and now, before entering Oxford, he serves in the special forces of the Pacific Fleet.
Official's half-sister Elena Lebova-Shuvalova works as the director of the Moscow house of children's creativity "Istok", where before that she taught children to play the accordion. Nephew Stanislav Shuvalov (32) is associated with mutual funds - works as a deputy CEO Development Management Company Sberinvest. As stated on the company's website, one of Stanislav's strengths is "attracting strategically important corporate and private VIP clients."
As they say, uncle help!
far circle
At the law faculty of Moscow State University, student Igor closely communicated with future lawyers Pavel Ivlev, Vasily Aleksanyan, Anton Drel, Svetlana Bakhmina. But now he prefers not to think about it. Former university friends went first to work at Yukos, and then - some on the run, some along the stage, some to the grave. And Ivlev even betrayed his fellow official, telling reporters how he used official information for personal gain. However, some of Shuvalov's old lawyer friends also remained. For example, Ismail Tursunov, who specializes in arbitration, real estate cases and international law.

In his post, Igor Ivanovich was remembered for being the representative of the President of the Russian Federation in the G8 and preparing the St. Petersburg summit of this organization in 2006. In narrower circles, he was also remembered for the fact that he managed to "fill up" the preparation of the annual message of the President of the Russian Federation to the Federal Assembly. As a result, this message, scheduled for the end of April 2006, was voiced by Putin only in May. However, no organizational conclusions were made regarding Shuvalov and he remained in his post.
In 2008, after Medvedev became President of the Russian Federation, Igor Ivanovich took up the post of assistant to the new head of state, but just a few days later, at the request of Vladimir Putin, he became First Deputy Prime Minister. In this position, he coordinated the activities of the Government of the Russian Federation to stop the consequences of the global financial crisis, dealt with issues of socio-economic development Far East, headed the government commission for economic development and integration within the CIS, prepared Russia's accession to the WTO. Well, after the resignation in 2011 of the Deputy Prime Minister and the permanent Minister of Finance Alexei Kudrin the entire economic bloc of the Government was closed to Shuvalov.
Literally immediately after his appointment as First Deputy Prime Minister, Igor Ivanovich headed the organizing committee for the preparations for the APEC 2012 summit in Vladivostok. Soon the city turned into a gigantic construction site. At the same time, a cable-stayed bridge across the Eastern Bosporus to Russky Island was being built, as well as a similar bridge across the Zolotoy Rog Bay, a new campus for the Far Eastern Federal University. All of these projects were criticized for their high costs, but Shuvalov did not react to it, stating that " Potemkin villages» will not be in Vladivostok. Truth, Accounts Chamber subsequently revealed large-scale financial irregularities in the preparation of the summit, but “second-tier” officials, such as the former deputy regional development officer of the Russian Federation, were held accountable for them Roman Panin and head of the Far Eastern Directorate of the Ministry of Economic Development Oleg Bukalov. Igor Ivanovich remained beyond suspicion.
Shuvalov actively lobbied for the idea of creating a giant state corporation for the development of the Far East. But, in the end, this idea of Igor Ivanovich did not receive the approval of President Putin, who did not want to create another bureaucratic center of power, of which there were already many. Instead of creating a state corporation, the post of Minister for the Development of the Far East and Plenipotentiary of the Far East federal district were divided, Viktor Ishaev, who occupied them, resigned. The plenipotentiary was close to Shuvalov Yuri Trutnev, and the minister Alexander Galushka, the personality is absolutely colorless and dependent. Igor Ivanovich had to be content with at least this half-hearted victory in the apparatus. Shuvalov also "under the guise" managed to "break through" the program for the socio-economic development of the Far East and Transbaikalia for the period up to 2025, for the implementation of which it is planned to allocate about 10 trillion rubles.
In addition to Far Eastern affairs, Igor Ivanovich also headed the organizing committee of the 2013 Universiade, which was held in Kazan, and after that, almost immediately began coordinating the process of preparing for the 2018 World Cup. In a word, Shuvalov always kept close to financial flows. At the same time, neither President Putin nor the head of the Government Medvedev had any questions for Igor Ivanovich and do not have any. However, it cannot be said that there are no questions for Shuvalov at all.
So, in 2011, the US Securities and Exchange Commission published information about the participation of Igor Ivanovich in transactions to acquire assets on American territory in the amount of $ 319 million, as well as granting him a loan in the amount of $ 119 million for these purposes under astronomical 40 percent per annum. Meticulous journalists got to the bottom of the fact that the Shuvalov family acquired through the Sevenkey company registered in the Bahamas, Gazprom shares in the amount of about $ 18 million. This information was published on the blog of Alexei Navalny. At the same time, the opposition blogger posted scans of documents stating that tens of millions of dollars were transferred to the accounts of Igor Ivanovich from companies Roman Abramovich and Alisher Usmanova.
Shuvalov immediately parried these accusations, saying that he earned these funds as an entrepreneur, and now they are in trust. That is, there is no violation of the law. Soon, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation did not find any violations. Well, the most honest Igor Ivanovich, as it turned out, was slandered in the meanest way by his former lawyer Pavel Ivlev, who is wanted by Interpol in the case of misappropriation of 2.4 billion dollars belonging to the Yukos company. It was Ivlev, allegedly manipulating the facts, who “leaked” false information Navalny. Shuvalov even held a special press conference on this issue. Journalists, of course, believed his arguments, but still an unpleasant aftertaste remained.
Faith in the crystal honesty of Igor Ivanovich was not strengthened by the fact that at the end of December 2013, the co-chairman of the RPR-PARNA party, Boris Nemtsov, using a public service on the website of the Federal tax service after checking the tax debt, he determined that Shuvalov allegedly owed more than 300,000 rubles in transport tax arrears. Of course, it turned out almost immediately that the service of the Federal Tax Service had a number of shortcomings and was not able to quickly reflect the recently paid taxes, in fact, as of the end of December, all the debts of the First Deputy Prime Minister and members of his family were repaid, and Nemtsov was simply engaged in unconstructive "trolling". But just in case, access to the FTS service was limited.
People who know him note that Igor Ivanovich knows how to impress. He dresses stylishly, has excellent manners, is erudite, in a word, does not give the impression of a blockhead boss. Although, if there are no cameras and ladies nearby, he can screw a salty word into his speech. By the way, as for the ladies, Shuvalov is a big fan of them. And how can such an imposing man not be a ladies' man. So, Olga Viktorovna always has to be on the alert and keep herself in shape, so that her missus looks around less.
Despite the fact that Igor Ivanovich Shuvalov occupies a high position (and was considered as a candidate for even higher positions), he shuns publicity. He is rarely shown on TV, so it is unlikely that the majority of the Russian population knows him by sight. On the one hand, he is a performer to the marrow of his bones, who does not have his own opinion and easily changes patrons. On the other hand, Shuvalov is really rich (despite the fact that, playing the fool, he pretends to be unmercenary), he has serious administrative experience, he has well-established connections in the state apparatus and among large businesses, he knows how to work with people. In a word, he is quite capable of making a career breakthrough to the very top of the imperious Olympus. In addition, in the current "St. Petersburg" team, he was not originally his own.
Maybe that's why Igor Ivanovich never became either Putin's "successor" in 2008, or even the prime minister. In addition, evil tongues claim that Shuvalov's true interests lie outside of Russia. That is why President Putin keeps him in the place of the first vice-premier without any prospect of "raising". Yes, and "stuffing" about the unrighteous Shuvalov capitals are made for a reason. Despite the fact that Igor Ivanovich always gets away with it, successfully parrying the accusations against him, there is still a certain residue. As they say, either they stole from him, or he stole.
Shuvalov Igor Ivanovich - First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation since May 12, 2008. Previously, he served as an assistant to the president under Vladimir Putin, headed the Russian federal property fund, and was deputy federal minister of state property.
Whether First Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov has a noble origin, genealogists are still arguing.
