Alexei Motlokhov (Russian: Алексей Мотлохов) (born 1981/82) is a London-based Russian hedge fund manager, and the son-in-law of Russian oligarch Andrey Guryev.[2]

Early life[edit]

Alexei Motlokhov is the son of Vladimir Motlokhov, who works for the Russian fertilizer giant, PhosAgro (controlled by Andrey Guryev), and was vice-governor of the Murmansk region from 2000 to 2008, where PhosAgro mines its phosphate.[1] Motlokhov received a PhD in economics in 2006.[1]

Career[edit]

Motlokhov runs the hedge fund Kola Capital with Mike Hollings and Ken Ginsburg, and they operate the Cayman Islands-domiciled Kola Global Opportunities Fund, amongst others.[3]

Personal life[edit]

Motlokhov is married to Yulia Guryeva-Motlokhov, the daughter of Russian billionaire Andrey Guryev.[4] They have twin sons and live next door to Guryev, who owns Witanhurst in Highgate, London's second largest house after Buckingham Palace.[4][1]

Motlokhov owns several properties in the U.K.[2] Several local residents wrote to Camden Council about a 57-metre long adventure playground that they were planning to build in their back garden, complaining that "The plans are on a commercial scale and it looks like this will be more like a theme park than a playground."[4]
