Rinat Akhmetov
Rinat Akhmetov is a prominent Ukrainian businessman, known as the founder and owner of System Capital Management and the largest steel producer in Ukraine, Metinvest. Born on September 21, 1966, in Donetsk, he has been a significant figure in the country's economy, particularly in the steel and coal industries. His business interests extend beyond metallurgy into energy, telecommunications, and real estate. Akhmetov has played a crucial role in the development of Ukraine's industrial sector, but his businesses have faced challenges due to the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine. Recently, he was in the news as Metinvest announced the suspension of operations at the Pokrovsk coal group due to escalating military actions in the region, which severely impacted coal production.
