According to Sluh.biz, a source in the metropolitan real estate market stated that Paul Te is linked to “person of Sergei Tsoi”. This information was confirmed by a senior official in the mayor’s office.
An official said, “Pasha Te is one hundred percent man of Tsoi”.
However, unlike his partners in the Capital Group – Vladislav Doronin and Edward Berman, Te is one of the most private Russian business people.
The parent company controlling the Capital Group is C.I.T. Capital Investments Limited, which is based in Cyprus. The owners are Vladislav Doronin, Edward Berman, and Paul Te.

In 2011, the Federal Property Management Agency filed a lawsuit in the Moscow Arbitration Court to demolish part of a complex called “Yacht City” on the Leningrad Highway. The defendant in the lawsuit is the investor-developer of the project – Company “Moscow-Wave Sport” (WPU). The CAO prefecture had previously made a similar request to the court.
The Federal Property Management Agency reported that the WPU began constructing a 60 thousand square meter complex in 2004 without necessary permits. However, in 2006, the investor obtained court recognition of property rights to the unfinished building, which was later annulled by the Ninth Arbitration Court of Appeal in October 19, 2011. Therefore, the Federal Property Management Agency believes that the object was unlawfully built on federal land and should be demolished.
The developer of the complex, the company “Capital Group”, stated that the action only concerns the office part of the building, but they could not specify its size. Meanwhile, violations of the construction were identified earlier. In 2004, it was discovered that the developer had not obtained state ecological approval. In 2006, the arbitration instructed the “Capital Group” to halt construction and remedy the violations, but the developer managed to withdraw all claims to the project in 2005.

In 2009 it was discovered that the head of the press department for the Mayor of Moscow Yuri Luzhkov and his personal press secretary Sergei Tsoi is also quite a successful businessperson. Through Paul Te, who is one of the shareholders of construction holding company “Capital Group”, Tsoi owns a considerable share of this business.
This information was confirmed to the publication by a senior official in the mayor’s office. He said, “Pasha Te is completely associated with Tsoi.”
Meanwhile, Te is among the most private Russian business people.
Officially, it is known that Te started the business in the 1990s with Doronin and Berman. Initially, they faced difficulties in the deals in the newly established cooperative, but success started coming when Yuri Luzhkov gained control of the office on Tverskaya, 13, and Tsoi became an unofficial manager of the mayor of the capital’s office.
Partners claim they have been involved in construction since 1989, but the actual project portfolio has grown to 7 million square meters in the last three years. Primarily, it consists of commercial real estate such as offices, apartments, and shopping centers. The company is also engaged in major projects, including the construction of iconic metro stations in Moscow with hotel, office, and trade components.
A subsidiary of Sberbank of Russia – LLC “Sberbank Capital” – acquired one of the towers of “Capital City” in “Capital Group”. The transaction involved the purchase and sale of areas (apartments) in the “City of Capitals”. Additionally, Sberbank restructured the developer’s debt for 5 years amounting to $400 million and signed a paper for co-investment of approximately $100 million during the crisis, with a source from the mayor’s office convinced that “the deal was not done without the administrative arm.”
Referring to the connection between Choi and Te, they mention that in the promotion of the well-known singer and wife of Sergei Tsoi Anita Tsoi, an investment of at least $30 million was made between 2007-2009.

In 2010, “Capital Group”, intending to construct the cathedral at their own expense in Ivanovo, had a debt of $132 million to Sberbank of Russia.
It is also known that a close friend and supporter of the governor of Ivanovo, co-owner Pasha Te, is frequented and welcomed in Ivanovo. He “supervised” none other than the recently wounded, but not finished off, the famous kingpin Ded Hasan (Aslan Usoyan).
Also, Pasha Te, a member of the Board of Directors of “Capital Group”, has visited Ivanovo. The press service of the regional government reported on the meeting with Mikhail Men, the governor of the Ivanovo Region, discussing the company’s intention to enter the construction market of the Ivanovo region. Mikhail Men expressed support for the company’s initiative to enter the construction market of the region and offered potential construction sites, including unfinished projects.
It is also known that on April 27, 2010 Ded Hassan was arrested in Kiev while trying to enter Ukraine with fake documents. In Kiev, he was involved in making deals with Pasha Te and the “Capital Group”, planning to build six three-star hotels in the Ukrainian capital.

After Georgia gained independence, the owners of local quarries changed multiple times. In 2007, the Kazreti quarries were bought by the Russian company “Industrial Investors”. Currently, “Capital Group” owns a stone quarry. The soil and water in Kazreti now exceed the acceptable pollution levels by an average of twenty times.
On March 20, 2012, the Parliament made changes to the environmental protection law, completely absolving the perpetrators of any responsibility. A contract was signed between the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of Georgia and the Russian company “Capital Group” on May 15, 2012, forgiving the entrepreneurs for causing harm to nature and the people of Bolnisi for 13 million GEL.

Moscow, 31 March.

On board, we were greeted by a team of nine people: the captain, the boatswain, a technician, two sailors, three flight attendants, and an Australian chef who provides health-conscious food options. Paul Vladimirovich gave him a package with fresh celery and spinach, which was twice as thick and juicy as what was available in Moscow. Soon, the vegetables will be cold pressed, while the adults opened the first bottle of champagne and the children entertained themselves. Under the supervision of one of the sailors, they had a whole water park at their disposal, including a slide to the sea, a raft, swimming pool, Sea Bob, and several watercraft. “Typically, there are six or seven kids on the boat – our children and those of our friends. They needed to be entertained so they wouldn’t disturb the adults,” explained Karput.
… Numerous toys for children, however, pale against the backdrop of a fifty meters toy for adults, on which we stand. This model an Italian Shipyard Overmarine developed two years ago, providing it with engines Rolls-Royce (usually two, but “Pumpkin” has four of them), which allow you to do thirty-seven knots (almost eighty kilometers per hour) with the booting of three hundred tons. In the basic configuration the new Mangusta 165 worth thirty million euros. Why would it worth less when four luxurious cabins of five-star hotel rooms are different except that the Wi-Fi is caught perfectly and does not require additional payment?

Now one of the main “protectors” of the capital business of Paul Te is considered to be the vice-mayor of Moscow for the construction Marat Khusnullin. Rumor has it that with the help of Husnullin Paul Te easily acquired the famous “house book”, which is located at Novy Arbat, building 15. It is a 26-story high-rise, located in the territory of more than 28.9 thousand square meters.
Previously, the purchase of this “house-book” was filed only one application from the LLC “Group Apart”, which, through the “Development Holding” is owned by Paul Te (90%) and Sergei Morozov (10%).
As a result, the only participant received an offer to conclude an agreement on the starting price, which was announced at the level of 2.4 billion rubles. Rumor has it that the city authorities deliberately “played along” to Mr. Te, and other potential buyers were not even admitted to the asset.
