Kirill Androsov

Amongst other investments, Androsov owns the historic hotel Château Gütsch in Lucerne, Switzerland. Androsov bought the property in June 2021 from its previous owner, the Russian oligarch Alexander Lebedev.

The Pandora Papers leaks found that one of Androsov's funds was linked to a corruption scandal in the Maldives that cost the country nearly $80 million. Lang Capital Fund, had invested in an island resort in the Maldives. Lang Capital’s investment and many others ultimately disappeared, and no resorts were ever built. Leaked documents implicated former President Abdulla Yameen and other senior officials in costing the country nearly $80 million. Androsov denied that he or Lang Capital had engaged in any wrongdoing.  President Yameen was convicted of fraud charges related to the scandal in 2019, but was released on an appeal in his case in 2021.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) noted that a “series of circular fund flows — including some demonstrating no plausible economic purpose — were allowed to pass through the trust accounts managed by Asiaciti.” In April 2019, Asiaciti staff acknowledged “instances of inconsistencies and transactions that do not make clear economic sense” in relation to its Russian clients. Executives at the firm decided to sever ties with Androsov's companies and planned to file “suspicious transaction reports” with authorities. In July 2020, MAS fined Asiaciti $1.1 million for breaches identified in their investigation. MAS made no findings that Androsov was involved in money laundering or any other illegal activity connected with the trust structures set up and administered by Asiaciti. In October 2021, Androsov told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation that he still does business with Asiaciti.

Since 2012, Androsov is a professor of economics at the Russian National Research University's Higher School of Economics.
