Biography
Alexey was born into an ordinary family, he did not have rich and influential parents. He came to millions in earnings thanks to hard work and dedication. As a child, he was fond of drawing, attended art school, but later realized that he would not be an artist. Alexey Nikolaevich was educated at the Moscow Institute of Foreign Languages. Maurice Thorez and graduated in 1987. He then got into a prestigious university on a quota, since his parents were workers. The specialty "translator-referent" of the Portuguese and English languages allowed him to work as a translator in the KMO of the USSR.
Career
In the early 90s, he held the position of Deputy Director of Technoserv JV. At the start of his activity he was engaged in the sale of used computers. Then Alexei realized that he could buy obsolete computers from the West and sell them from us. In the USSR, such computers were considered a technical novelty. To many then this idea seemed to be a failure, but, nevertheless, the business was profitable.
Having teamed up with his brother Dmitry Ananiev, Alexey creates Promsvyazbank in 1995. Promsvyazbank began to develop successfully and after 3 years entered the top 100 banks in terms of assets.
"Promsvyazbank" was not created by the brothers by accident. The volume of orders for the supply of computers was rapidly increasing, it was necessary to somehow organize trading activities on a deferred payment basis. During this period, the MMT organization becomes a co-founder of the bank. The general director of MMT was on good terms with the Ananiev brothers. Alexey was a member of the boards of directors of various companies from 1998-2003. Among them were the following companies: "Tambovmyasoprodukt", "Pnevmostroymashina" and TD "Minsk". In early 2013, Ananyev decided to leave Technoserv. Later he became the director of OJSC "Control Systems".
At the end of 2017, information appeared that the Central Bank of the Russian Federation began the reorganization of Promsvyazbank. After the announcement of the reorganization, the bank's shares fell sharply in value. At the time of the reorganization, the Central Bank put into operation a temporary administration. During the checks, several credit files worth more than 100 billion rubles were not found. The bank's management was accused of concealing illegal transactions. Dmitry himself left the territory of the Russian Federation at the end of 2017. The businessman explained his departure abroad by the fact that he was undergoing a medical examination. Later he gave an interview, where he said that he considered the sanitation to be useless. He also suspects that competitors unleashed an information attack on the bank, and later completely criticized the procedure for conducting the reorganization. Already in the middle of 2018, he became the head of Technoserv Group LLC.
The Ananiev brothers do not really like to talk about their deeds and achievements. In their opinion, it is better to work quietly in the shadows than to spread about plans for the future.
Personal life and hobbies
Alexey Nikolaevich never concealed that he and his brother were deeply religious people. For many years they have been taking part in Sunday services, which are held in the Moscow Church of the Life-Giving Trinity. Alexey also helps monasteries and sings in the church choir. The businessman joined religion back in 1991, when his wife brought him to church for the first time. Later, Dmitry Ananiev took an example from his older brother and was baptized in 1992. In 2014, he was awarded the Order of Sergei Radonezhsky for his assistance in the restoration of the Trinity-Sergius Lavra.
They have a strong relationship with their brother Dmitry. They do business together, but they never clash over money. Alexey said that it would be better to agree with his brother on any issue than to quarrel with him. He does not hide the fact that he feels happier if he comes to an agreement with his brother in resolving any issue.
Another hobby of Alexei is expensive paintings. The businessman has a large collection of paintings, which contains about 6,000 works. The Institute of Russian Realistic Art has been functioning for 7 years now, where all the paintings of the businessman are exhibited. His collection includes many works by such artists as Viktor Ivanov, Albert Papikyan, Geliy Korzhev and others. The most expensive painting in the collection costs almost $ 3 million, which was acquired in 2014.
A look at parenting
Alexey has three children, sons. The eldest son has an internship abroad and a diploma from the Moscow Institute of Management. Now he works for Technoserv, dealing with various financial problems. The middle son of a businessman is still studying at Moscow State University. Lomonosov. His dream is to become a successful political scientist. The youngest son is a schoolboy. Ananyev said that he respects the choice of profession of his children. He believes that it is impossible to fully transfer the skills of managing a large business to children, so he will be happy with any profession of his sons. From early childhood, he instilled in children a love of work, while not motivating them with expensive gifts. Alexey Nikolaevich pampers children, but in moderation, only on their birthday. There is little information in the press about his wife Daria.
