Honestly you do better reporting on this then The major news outlets, thanks for the regular content and thorough research!
Than and then are not the same. Love, Grammar Nazi.
I don't think that there are any humans working for our major news networks either..ha ha.
@@mmabagain Shouldn't you sign as: a grammer nazi?
@@mmabagain Careful, Grammar Geek. Putin may come after you next.
@@mmabagain Wow well caught, I’ll be you feel superior now huh?
Incredible investigating! Wow! Ownership is like peeling back an onion. Great story!
Make it simple. Don't take peoples' property. I know they are not American. And I understand the concerns. But nature always finds a way. Wealth and power only make it easier.
Onion? Don't you mean Russian nesting doll?
@@Primalxbeast 🤣
As someone who likes to cook, I can confirm that even onions that look okay from the outside can be rotten at the core....
@@Primalxbeast they’re called Matryoshka 🇺🇦💙💛 we have Family in Ukraine which brought me to this channel. Now I’m fascinated by it 😀 seen plenty really interesting videos 😀
Lurssen is currently investigating the ownerships of all yachts under construction. They must be worried !
Up to this point, they've been more than happy to take large sums of money without verifying the source of funds. So, what has changed? Their website still advertises, "complete confidentiality." The law should have always required ship-makers to verify that _all_ transactions meet international anti-money-laundering and tax evasion laws, in the first place. It shouldn't take sanctions for operations to suddenly be above-board. There should be zero "confidentiality" in spending hundreds of millions on acquiring vast amounts of properties, with large expense books. Otherwise, it's highly suspect to be used as a way to hide ill-gotten gains or other slush funds.
Money being frozen worried about payment
@@mvpfocus In the end, they are simply running a business - whoever can pay for a boat gets a boat to a certain extend. They must have also checked in the past who they sold to, since Lürssen also builds vessels for defence/military and can’t allow themselves to loose eligibility for those contracts. Now they are checking even more since the “black list” of companies and people is growing and changing every day and they are not allowed to deal with people on that list. I think one should remember that these are luxury goods they are selling (crazy expensive, yes), but not anythings that actually harms the people.... those ships that have mounted guns are not sold to private persons but only to governments. So making the shipyards responsible to check the backgrounds of their customers to the extend you mentioned seems extreme imo...
@@Nina-ig5ev Private mega mansions on water don't have to have "mounted guns" to be detrimental to society as tools for tax evasion and money laundering. The only reason it's probably gone on this long is because of greased palms. It may have taken an unjust war to finally start to enforce the laws, but less corruption and more transparency would make the world a better place.
I'd bet the people working in the forensic accounting business must love this guy.
Lost and found office:
Found: 156 meter yacht in local shipyard. If this is your yacht, please apply in person to the lost and found office.
If you can either
a) describe the yacht
b) provide proof of ownership
the yacht is yours.
If no owner is forthcoming in the next 30 days it will become property of the local government. It may then be sold, or turned into an artificial reef, and new scuba diving mecca.
Or used as target practice
Government should sell it, and all the money should go to Ukraine for rebuilding their country, because that madman is destroying everything there, and also killing innocent peoples.
@dave077 - perfect!
No. If not claimed it will be sold and money sent to Ukraine for rebuilding!
Nice but I don't think I'd want to be responsible for the upkeep, payroll lol. I'd be fine with one in between 50-100m
Wow, can’t even begin to imagine the amount of legalities to have gone through. Thanks again for the updates on such an interesting twist to the heartbreaking invasion. Stay safe and healthy and thanks so much.
So the important question that comes to my mind is: why do authorities like BKA or others find out about possible money laundering or potentially illegal activities around the companies connected to Dilbar, or any other suspicious vessel, only NOW? That would have been their job and duty years ago as well. Quite embarrassing for them infact. There have been several so called leaks from the financial and banking sector in the last years and they could not move a finger up until now? What is their job then?
Excactly my first thought, as well
My inner cynic says: sanctions must have blocked the payoffs.
My inner optimist says: the agencies figured the oligarchs weren't causing any harm _here_ and focused their limited resources on criminals who were hurting people closer to home.
Because. Because, the BKA and all the other TLA agencies are not driven by morality or ethics OK? It's all down to the $
these assets are not taken because there is any accusation of money laundering or illegal activities. That's why there is no rightful legal procedure towards any of the owners.
It is just a political move. You are Russian and wealthy? We steal your assets, so that you get angry at Putin....
Western legal system was flushed down the toilet and on the long run it will cost way more to the western countries than to the Russian.
Creating a maze of holdings to conceal your ownership as such does not constitute a crime.
So far, oligarchs basically ripped off the Russian state when they bought their companies for a song - but due to the corrupt complicity in Russia, nobody pressed charges about it.
You should receive the Reporter of the year award
Just spotted the old Dilbar (Al Raya) in Barcelona today. Looked it up out of curiosity and now this video's released. Great coverage of the industry 😁
The fact that the identity of yacht owners is so opaque sort of calls the entire industry into question.
Really? I thought everyone knew it's full of tax dodging crooks. I'm sure much of it's "legal", which simply highlights how bent tax laws are, another thing everyone knows or ought to.
@@steeltrap3800 they don't dodge taxes. They steal all natural resources from people, sell them and keep the money to themselves. They are thieves.
To dodge taxes you have to be smart.
@@mrbubbles6961 Well, yes, I was sort of putting it all as a collection of scumbaggery, LOL.
Cheers
*16.000 tons.* This "boat" is the size of a heavy cruiser. And probably cost the same. Very interesting all this new info you provided on Dilbar, thanks.
42,000 square feet of living space and 220,000 gallons of fuel are some other mind blowing metrics about it!
Nice work BKA and others at Suisse Credit for releasing information!
Good on eSysman also !! Great channel !!
I love your Russian Oligarch sanctions news! Thank you!
I love listening to and learning about something I never thought would interest me! But most of all I love the dry sense of humor you throw in at the perfect time.
Apparently I need to write an official complaint to my sister as she hasn’t bought me a Dilbar sized yacht yet…as it seems to me that’s how it works :)…great detective work as usual, thank you
😂😂
😂😂
@@sadasmith will probably take her up on that…not greedy as would be happy with a yacht of any size…will keep you posted:)
damn I only have 2 brothers 😏
@@kristinedavid1747 You would be doing her a favor by giving her yet another opportunity to live up to her filial obligations, thus gaining merit in heaven. Hopefully she wiil be both prompt and appropriatly grateful.
Dilbar is a Persian word (also seen in close languages), composed of two parts, “Dil” or “Del” meaning ‘heart’, and “bar” meaning ‘taking’. Together means someone or better to say a lover who takes and owns your heart. It is mainly called for a beautiful lady who owns your heart.
Also costs a lot of money and smells like fish.. lol
its his mothers name
@@yourmomshouse0486 Yes I have seen that explanation of the word.
@hamed19821: Then obviously he's not only a money laundering gangster, he loves his own sister.
DILBAR was Usmanov mother first name.
Always appreciate your thorough investigating. Yours is the channel I turn to for the most accurate and updated news on these super yachts. Thank you!
True. The information found on this channel seem to be so far from the loose gossip I see elsewhere.
Always on time!
You are the Man! Thanks for the hard work!
How on earth are you doing this???? Great work man!
he didnt do anything. he read from a report
In this case he was literally just reading one major german news article. But I have to agree, been loving the videos the past weeks!
Great update! The investigation into Dilbar would be a massive story in itself. The man hoursinvoled. The people doing the digging. Wow.
Hmmm....a super-yacht is a hole in the ocean into which forensic accountants pour man-hours.....
Just a little note to my fellow viewers here on the channel.
This video has 300,000 views but only 12,000 people pressed the like button.
May I suggest that if you like it, press the like button.
Our host works hard to give us this yacht information.
It’s only fair and it only takes a second 😄👍
Excellent content as always. Thanks for keeping things current.
Nice work BKA
Your reports are fascinating. Thank you.
Since discovering this channel, it's become compulsive viewing. Excellent, just excellent!
Almost every night another great reporting job! Love your channel.
Absolutely loving your channel these past six weeks or so. You're the only one keeping us fully up to date on on who ownd what until the governments arrested or seized it. The uniqueness of your contribution is remarkable, altough I have no idea what value the information actually has. 😊
Keep up the good work.
You are doing a great resurch and job ! Thanks a lot !!!!
My head is starting to spin around and around! Thanks for the video. Cheers!
Dear Mr. eSysman, I already read it in the german newspaper two or three hours ago. You really do a great job. I sent you an intagram dm a couple of weeks ago for writing german subtitles for your videos. You mentioned it in one of your videos. I don't want any money - you can stany anonymous - you really do a great job. Maybe it would be even more important in these days. I don't have any financial interest in the superyacht industires - I do something with real estate and mediation for living. Kind regards and thank you for every video making me curious about yachts. Tim
I think he said in a previous video that he is unable to receive instagram direct messages at the moment but that facebook messages directed at the page there were still going through
The way to contact him was to go to the about page on his channel and use the email address there. 5:22
Why german subtitels? You can write english so i asume that you also can hear it! Please mr sysman, also subtitels in swedish, norwegian, Japanse, Chinese, etc etc😂 . Thanks for your update in english. Keep on going!👍
Guarantee he released this well before the paper had it. Even when channels upload to TH-cam it can hours load. They're a great couple and team. I'm not even into sailing and love this channel. I'm mesmerised by how filthy rich the corrupt Oligarchs are. Hibto Germany from Northern Ireland 🇮🇪 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 🍀 👋

Soon he will 'investigate' the Saudi Royal families "H.M.S. Headchopper" to find out if it is on the sanctions list. Oh wait, those are NATO's allied head choppers.
I agree with the comment below. Great story. I really appreciate these videos on the "superyachts" by "eSysman". Thank you.
Good job ! Thanks for keeping us informed.
Outstanding video, great research!!! Nice job!!
Great reporting as usual.
I was a federal agent for 22 years. Always follow the money. Names mean nothing
No informer or FBI special agent took down Chicago Outfit's leader Al Capone. It was IRS with weedy accountants. Money always has a trail and it ends with superyacht so following it in reverse should go somewhere interesting.
Reminds me of The Untouchables :)
Could you investigate the criminals at the World Economic Forum?
@@christopherharrison2405 they're all guilty. Lol
Well done!
Thank you, a great follow up.
Thank you for your concise reporting!
The more layers hiding true ownership, the more dodgy it looks to do that.
They are all in on it. They knew & did it.
When you see such elaborate layering of companies and corporations, that always screams someone is hiding something illegal.
Awe inspired by your work. TYVM!
I’m not into yachts, but I like your reporting. Thanks.
I like yachts, but I've never heard of this ship. That's the biggest private ship I've ever seen in my life!
Yacht is definitely a misnomer.
Great job e man. Thanks for all your hard work
Thank you sir!
As always a really nice work!
Nice 👍 update
Thank you !!!
Another great report. Good grief! I feel these investigators must love a good puzzle. What a web!
Thanks for making this twisted tale so much easier to follow. What a ghastly murky world filled with ghastly murky individuals. With so much money laundering involved, let's hope for many more seizures.
Next time pls create an org chart to show ownership structure...
It would take longer than the video to scroll through the shell companies and trusts of any one of these boats
Awesome research!! Thank You!!
Great investigative work. Thank you.
Many lawmen and women benefit from these opaque ownership structures. Hope this is the moment the ordinary person says ‘enough!’
How do, "lawmen... benefit from opaque ownership structures?"
wonder if this person is mentioned in the panama papers .
Very interesting, thank you for all the information
Thank you!
Very interesting and a great report. Thank you so much!
I'm just picturing Usmanov with his face covered in chocolate saying "chocolate? what chocolate? Go ask my sister"
This is some good reporting. Keep up the good work you are doing an impressive job.
True Sister Trust...
I wonder what that could possibly mean
The well known street con is called a shell game. For the mega rich, whether entirely lawful, slightly dodgy or downright criminal, it seems the name of the game is shell companies, to hide, obscure and otherwise disguise the ownership of assets, understandable for the last two categories, but concerning for those that are nominally in the first group. A management company which operates a vessel for an owner is fair enough, but when it becomes multiple companies or legal entities in multiple jurisdictions then there starts to be a smell of week old fish. Thanks for another look be the curtain (iron or otherwise).
True, but it does seem that all this is a form of psychological projection. Obvious criminals in world governments confiscating other criminals ill-gotten gains to avoid revelations about their own criminality. In other words, simply accusing others of that which you do yourself....and then take their stuff in the process. The whole scheme is clearly downright criminal, especially since NATO countries destroyed Libya, performed the coup inn Ukraine with Neo-Nazis and support al-Qaeda terrorists in Syria, as well as the despotic countries of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, etc. In the modern day, one mans despotic oligarch is another mans globalist billionaire philanthropist. Shady people ruling the world is what it all is about.
@@christopherharrison2405 Neo-Nazi coup in Ukraine, another triumph for pro-Putin propaganda. However I do agree with some of your other comments especially Libya. Some of the others like Saudi and Turkey are real politik, and the self determination of sovereign nations.
If I was close to the woman who owns all these big ticket items, I'd tell her to sell everything right away. Even if she got 2% of their values, she'd be a multi-millionaire, and we could vacation together comfortably in Bora Bora (if she's good lookin').
@@brahmburgers Always the danger of putting your assets in the name of another person to hide the true ownership. Divorces are an everyday version, with assets being hidden to prevent true ownership being revealed to courts.
My suspicion is that these boats are used as depreciative assets in high tax countries while profits are are in non taxed entities. Classic off shore accounting. As always the book treasure islands is a good primer on this
Great Info again….will help a lot!
ive had a 18th ft boat so to listen to all this stuff is mad.well done.
What a trail of corruption to hid the owner(s)!
Super entertainment about the superyachts. Imagine owning the world's largest yacht and having to get permission to use it from your sister. Goes to show that life can suck even for an oligarch. Or maybe they have an arrangement where she just keeps the key under the mat for him.😃
he prob pays her money or in kind somehow and she keeps away from the vessel. He likely has total control of it in fact.
Super entertainment is that there are no laws in NATO countries or Europe, and there are illegal sanctions in essence.
I suspect he has de facto 100% control of the yacht.
I imagine if she ever denied him access to his yacht, she'd be wearing concrete boots. But what do I know! I'm just a pleb being screwed from every financial direction for the fun of the guys in the WEF - who think they are better than us all.
@@herenow6953 WEF? C’est quoi?
Great stuff brother. Keep up the good work!
Great work. Thanks
Maybe this has been asked.. with all these super yachts being "arrested" does it mean that eventually they end up on the market for sale? What impact could this/will this have on the super yacht market from a pricing standpoint. Seems like a sizeable percentage of the buyers in this market are currently on the sidelines, from what I am seeing these oligarchs may have made up a significant potion of the market?
I've been wondering this myself. If the yachts that were arrested are just returned to their owners when all of this is over, then what's the point of taking them? An earlier eSysman video mentioned that around 10% of all superyachts are believed to be owned by Russians. So a significant proportion of the world's superyacht fleet coming onto the market in a short period of time is going to drive prices way down, if they're sold. But I guess as long as the seizing government gets enough out of the sale to cover the costs of seizing and holding the vessel they probably don't care if it's a bargain. I;d love to know what's going to happen to them though.
Will the ships be sold? That depends. If the owner of Dilbar, for example, is found guilty of money laundering, the ship will be officially seized (along with other assets) and sold. Ships that have been seized (not arrested) due to unpaid debts, will be sold to recover said debts.
Will it effect values? Well, some (Russian) oligarchs will now be wary of buying such extravagant assets, so it could cause a drop in values.
@@JimOHalloran Owning a super yacht is itself an expensive endeavor. It itself seems to be quite a flex. Think of having 100 employees on payroll at premium rates like on the Dilbar while sitting in dry dock. Purchasing one on the cheap would be like a middle-class person buying a divorce special Ferrari. The maintenance costs would sink you. That is another limiter on the market.
@@JimOHalloran It's likely that the arresting/seizing country will either use existing laws to dispose of the property, or they will enact new laws allowing them to seize and dispose of Russian origin property at will . A bit like the laws Putin is enacting to seize leased aircraft and other foreign owned property for domestic use. Personally I'd like to see these vessels sold and the money given to the government of Ukraine for reparations..
@@dougle03 Money given to Ukraine is just going to buy a house or yacht for Ukrainian oligarchs, or a another house for an American politician.
Until about whatever three weeks ago when I started watching your channel this stuff gets so weird as time goes on I never even knew about the super yachts so I don’t know if that means anything to you but you as an individual has open my eyes to this industry appreciate that now when I talk to people that are in my little circle I am the expert so I stole all your material but I’m not publish it I’m just simply saying it out loud to my friends who now think I’m a genius thank you sir
Cool honesty in your comment, good fun
I am in the same sort of position. I assumed that they were absolute state of the art machines, all of them. But some seem like gilded sow’s ears. Glossy paint jobs, lots of cool toys, but at the heart, Lego constructions made from common parts to whatever size that the customer can afford. Thus, on the used market, they sell for relatively small sums. And then they are re-outfitted to the new owners’ taste for a large fraction of the purchase price.
This channel is brilliant mate.
Well done on your reporting
They should give you some type of reward for just compiling your stories and so the yacht owners know they're being actually watched and monitored as who are the real owners of. Keep peeling back that onion. There are more tears to be shed out there.
A river of them I should think, especially after you include the houses, bank accounts and revenue streams. So sad ........?
@@ourfarmhouseinspain Western oligarchs robbing eastern oligarchs....who'da thunk it? The world really is run by gangsters.
@@ourfarmhouseinspain I could picture Trump talking about the poor yacht owners. "It's so sad, these are just some of the best people in the world and they're taking their homes away from them. So sad, so sad"

Renting Dilbar from his relatives is standard tax evasion......They get to claim Dilbar as a leasing/business venture...write of ALL expenses and never let a stranger onboard..........him.......a business/entertaining expense and another FREE toy😎
Love your updates.
Wonderful news. Thank you.
What is the fallout against the yacht industry going to be? If these vessels can just be seized because your government was naughty, that is sure to depress demand significantly.
This must be causing something like panic in certain shipyards.
Might be some ships in construction that will default too.
@@jonymanay I feel bad for the shipwrights. Their livelihood will be wrecked and it won't be easy to move on.
So many shipyards not really doing KYC
Blood money. Live by the sword etc
These criminals play this ownership game to avoid possible sanctions. If your a legitimate businessman than there's no need to hide your assets.
"Immediately added to the sanctions list". LMAO, awesome.
Don't worry, soon it will be owned by his niece.
As usual great information thks
Great reporting
If MV Dilbar was delivered in 2016, how can the captain have been on board 14 years? Just love these videos.
Alisher has had 3 total vessels named Dilbar since 2005. His first has been sold and renamed Natita, his second has been sold and renamed Ona, his current is of course Dilbar.
Edit: It's basically like buying new cars but keeping the same license plate.
The same owner had two previous yachts, a 66m Oceanco (2005) and a 110m Lurssen (2008) both called Dilbar. It’s likely he captained more than just the current 156m Dilbar.
@@thinkingai6017 Got it, thanks.
@@Blanders54 Sounds about right.
You don't really get the scale of just how big it is till you see the person walking the aft step from the swim deck. Wow is it big.
I live in Antibes and my apartment overlooks the Millionaires Row and the usual berth of DILBAR. I have video of the last time it was in port here and the 22 minutes it took that very experienced crew to dock her. Interestingly enough, although the port of Antibes is larger and deeper than Monaco and Cannes our more infamous neighbors DILBAR and the yachts of Abramovich cannot both fit into our port at the same time. You may believe that his sister leaves the key under the mat for her brother's use but those of us who know crew members, delivery services, professional female guests, etc etc. know that HE owns that yacht and he always has---including the helicopters that ferry him and guests back and forth between Antibes and Monaco or San Remo or wherever he wants. DILBAR is usually in port for the start of the sail racing season in June and very visible was her repaint (change of colors) last year. DILBAR always looks tip top and there are always guests on board for the major yachting shows on the Riviera. So let's not believe the layers of paperwork. All these yachts, helicopters, airplanes and villas should be confiscated (some oligarchs and/or their grand families and myriad companies actually have the nerve to owe the French government property taxes!!!!). The yachts themselves and all their precious gold leaf contents and artwork should be sold and after back French taxes are paid the money should go directly to UKRAINE for rebuilding!! Yes, these yachts supplied lots of jobs to locals and our Michelin star restaurants will miss their money too but at what price for human life and decency? I shall miss the spectacle outside my windows and from the ramparts which were armed guarded from us local "rif-raf" but I would prefer to see this man and all his sisters and co-conspirators dropped from helicopters into the Med----far enough out so that the fat tub of over-consumption cannot possible swim ashore or be rescued by Putin's other henchmen. Yes I am angry and sad. Victory to Ukraine! Peace to the people of Ukraine and all their neighbors.
There are over 1,000 comments already but I must add a thank you for fantastic reporting!
Imagine having the prestige of owning the largest Superyacht in the world, and instead of naming it something like "Supreme Titan X 1000" you call it Dilbar 💀
Well done the German investigators.
Amazing! A never-ending story of amazing revelations.
Great channel..lots of information.
At a time when these fabulous contracts for building megayachts were coming to Lurssen, he had to ask himself some questions about where the money came from. So ,Lurssen is also guilty for money laundering...
It is not different from selling, say, diamonds.
@@vsiegel , you can't compare a house to a brick .... this is about hundreds of millions of dollars each yacht, and it looks like there are many yachts , only at Lurssen
When one tracks all the company structures, one can see why so may Millionaires/billionaires worldwide pay little if any tax.. Not just the Russians...
That's what the middle class is for. To pay for tax loopholes for the rich.
The SCALE of money laundering is estimated in the $TRILLIONS$. The primary means of concealing wealth is shell corporations, such as the 36 'offshore' corporations linked to this 'yacht' (more like ocean liner). They are created with such a complex web of ownerships, trusts, corporations, lessors, etc. that sometimes it is essentially impossible to fully nail down who the owner(s) is/are. The scale of these shell corporations has been highlighted by three troves of leaked documents. If you're interested, look into 'Panama Papers', 'Paradise Papers', and 'Pandora Papers'. Shell corporations and the entities catering (often small island nations, also Cyprus) to them, should be banned.
@@gregparrott what do u care about russian loopholes? The less taxes they pay the weaker army they have.
@@bambinaforever1402 My comment pertained to shell corporations, not taxes per se. You likely meant to reply to someone else in this comment thread. While shell corporations often serve to avoid taxes, an even larger purpose is to conceal ownership. That's why in tis case it had 36 offshore corporations. Many are likely fictitious offshore corporations, with no physical existence other than a post office box.
Additionally, the taxes they avoid paying to the tax friendly island nations has zero relation to their ties with Putin. When Putin needs cash, he just tells the oligarchs it's time to deliver.
Good to see great content
thank you
How would the tonnage of conficateted yachts compare to actual Navy of respected nations? gotta be crazy
Would love to see if there were any politicians or political parties that received any ‘beneficial’ payment connected to these oligarchs. I’m sure there are!!
Of course there are political party connections starting with our very own Boris et al! BOJO to us Brits! His party have give Russian Oligarchs Lordships to our House of Lords and London has been a safe heaven for all of them, buying British citizenship for an average of £2 million! Abromovich and co! Oh the plot thickens!
Of course not! Who would do a thing like that?
Well Hunter and Joe Biden are connected to Kolomoisky in Ukraine and received millions from him. He finances the Nazi battalions who have been conducting ethnic cleansing by the way.
our govt have “charity tennis auctions” that wife’s chip in £160000 to play the PM no questions asked.

Curiouser and curiouser... Regards.
The hits keep on coming. I’m wondering if there any super or mega yachts that are not shady or have hidden criminal dealings
That big H and circle on the deck would make a great aim point for an A-7D with loaded racks.
No.
Of course there are, if you look away from russian owned, and at boats with western owners.
