Imperial focused on oil and natural gas supplies to East Germany and later to Germany including the oil-for-pipes program.[3][5]
On 28 April 1992 using DM 50 million from a "frozen" VEB account, Tokobank gained an 80.6% stake in Ost-West Handelsbank after the shareholders of Ost-West Handelsbank transferred the stake to Tokobank which was the first privatization of a former sovzagranbank (Russian: Совзагранбанк).[6][a] In May 1998, members of the St. Petersburg "Northern Alliance" (Russian: «Северный Альянс») including Stolyarenko, the "Kinex" founders Evgeny Malov (Russian: Евгений Малов) and Andrey Katkov (Russian: Андрей Катков) and their then business partner Gennady Timchenko, held temporary directorships of Tokobank (Russian: Токобанк). In 1998, Tokobank owned a 28% stake in the German bank Ost-West Handelsbank.[8]

Legal claims[edit]
In 2019 Stolyarenko got involved in the criminal case of FSB colonel Kirill Cherkalin. The former banker was charged with fraud and arrested in absentia (he had left Russia in 2012). Stolyarenko denied all charges against him.[12] The court later completely excluded the mention of Stolyarenko's name from the descriptive and motivational part of its verdict, as unrelated to the case.[13]
In the spring of 2023, the criminal case against Stolyarenko (and his colleague Alexander Bondarenko) was terminated due to the statute of limitations.[14]
