It has become known that Nicole Shishkhanova, the daughter of former banker Mikail Shishkhanov (nephew of oligarch Mikhail Gutseriev), although she has lived in the US for a long time, is involved in the family business.

Yet, for those aware of the company’s true performance, this optimism seems hard to believe—how can Shrage’s business be thriving when it is actually operating at a loss?
