據一家拍賣商網站稱,受制裁的俄羅斯商人德米特里·彭普揚斯基的一艘豪華游艇于8月23日拍賣,此前這位億萬富翁未能償還摩根大通公司(JPMorgan Chase & Co.)的貸款。
拍賣行Howe Robinson Partners的經紀人奈杰爾·霍利爾表示,這將是自2022年2月俄烏沖突爆發迫使當局扣押世界各地港口的豪華船只以來,第一艘被公開拍賣的超級游艇。
今年3月,英屬直布羅陀當局在地中海的入口處扣押了Axioma號游艇。英國廣播公司(BBC)稱,這艘游艇的價值為6300萬英鎊,但預計將以低于這個價格拍賣,不過沒有透露它是如何獲得該估值的。
彭博社在早些時候援引法庭文件報道稱,摩根大通公司于今年7月在直布羅陀贏得了一項法庭命令,允許出售這艘240英尺(約73.152米)長的游艇,此前彭普揚斯基拒絕支付與該游艇相關的2060萬美元貸款。該行發言人拒絕置評。
霍利爾說,這艘有5層甲板的游艇擁有無邊游泳池和3D影院,引發了大量關注,并引用了潛在買家或其調查團隊迄今為止的約115次咨詢和28次檢查。他以保密協議為由,拒絕就該游艇的價值進行置評。
彭普揚斯基做鋼鐵生意起家。在今年3月受到制裁之前,他控制著俄羅斯最大的鋼管生產商TMK PJSC。(財富中文網)

A luxury yacht formerly owned by sanctioned Russian businessman Dmitry Pumpyansky sold at auction on August 23 after the billionaire failed to repay JPMorgan Chase & Co. a loan, according to an auctioneer’s website.
It will be the first superyacht to be publicly auctioned since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine pushed authorities to freeze luxury vessels in ports around the world, Nigel Hollyer, a broker at auction house Howe Robinson Partners, told Bloomberg by phone.
Axioma was seized in Gibraltar back in March by authorities in the British territory at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. The ship is valued at £63 million, though it is expected to sell below that price, the BBC said, without disclosing how it got that appraised value.
In July, JPMorgan won a court order in Gibraltar allowing for the sale of the 240-foot vessel after Pumpyansky reneged on a $20.6 million loan tied to the ship, Bloomberg earlier reported citing court documents. A spokesperson for the bank declined to comment.
The 5-deck ship, which boasts an infinity swimming pool plus a 3D cinema, has drawn a “staggering amount of interest,” Hollyer said, citing about 115 inquiries and 28 inspections by potential buyers or their survey teams to date. He declined to comment on the value of the boat, citing confidentiality agreements.
Pumpyansky made his fortune in the steel business. Before he was sanctioned in March, he controlled TMK PJSC, Russia’s largest steel pipes producer.
