GENEVA — It is thought to be the most expensive divorce in
history. Strange then, perhaps, that the battle should go down to the
very last centime.
A Swiss court has ordered Russian billionaire
Dmitry Rybolovlev to hand over half of his fortune to his ex-wife,
Elena, a sum that a Geneva judge has ruled to be precisely 4,020,555,987
Swiss francs and 20 centimes (S$5.6 billion), the Swiss media reported
on Monday.
Mr Rybolovlev, 47, was ordered on May 13 to hand over the
astronomical sum to his former wife, who lives in Geneva, said Le Temps,
the Swiss daily newspaper.
Under the historic divorce
settlement, the oligarch is to give his ex-wife half of the property
deeds to their two former homes in Cologny, a fashionable district in
Geneva. It has also ordered him to hand over antique furniture and
jewellery. Ms Elena Rybolovleva reportedly also won custody of the
couple’s 13-year-old daughter Anna. Mr Rybolovleva can appeal against
the ruling.
The couple, who wed in Cyprus, had been married for 23 years.
The
reported divorce settlement will dwarf the previous most punitive
divorce, estimated at US$2.5 billion (S$3.1 billion), between art heir
Alec Wildenstein and his former wife Jocelyne.
The second-highest
divorce settlement until now came when media mogul Rupert Murdoch was
ordered to award his former wife Anna US$1.7 billion in 1999.
The
Geneva court declined to provide details of the ruling, which a
spokesman said was in accordance with its policy of only sharing them
with the parties to a case.
Mr Rybolovlev, who lives in Monaco,
has an estimated US$8.8 billion fortune, which he made in the potassium
industry, making him the world’s 147th richest man, said Forbes
magazine.
Ms Rybolovlev began divorce proceedings in Switzerland
in 2008, winning a freeze on some of her husband’s assets, including
majority ownership of French football club AS Monaco, a US$295 million
stake in Bank of Cyprus and a US$95 million home in Palm Beach, Florida,
purchased from tycoon Donald Trump.
She later sued him in the
United States, accusing him of trying to shield the Florida property
from the divorce proceedings, along with a Manhattan penthouse that had
cost US$88 million — said to be the highest sum paid for an apartment in
the city at the time.
Ms Rybolovlev also said her husband had
used marital property to buy a multitude of other assets through a
variety of trusts and limited liability companies, hoping to put those
assets beyond her reach. AGENCIES
Elena Rybolovleva and Dimitri Rybolovlev
Elena Rybolovleva, once married to Russian fertilizer king Dmitry Rybolovlev, filed papers
in 2012 saying a $88 million New York apartment the billionaire bought their
22-year-old daughter Ekaterina was nothing more than a ploy to hide assets in their
divorce. When the apartment was purchased in 2011 it made headlines as the most expensive residential property in New York. Rybolovlev said the pad would be for daughter Ekaterina to live in while she attended college. But in papers filed in Manhattan
Supreme Court, Elena Rybolovleva, his wife of 24 years and mother of
his two children, countered that Ekaterina didn't attend school in New
York. The pricey pad was one of a handful of properties worth an
estimated $180 million that the billionaire snapped up between 2008 and
2012 in an attempt -- Elena alleges -- to avoid paying up. It doesn't
appear that the duo have yet to settle.
