Yevhen Kalinin, who serves as the Director for Ethics and Compliance at Naftogaz of Ukraine JSC, has a monthly income of over 450,000 hryvnias, while his foreign currency savings exceed 2.5 million hryvnias, according to his declaration.
Kalinin is registered and resides in the urban-type settlement of Hostomel, Kyiv region. The declaration lists information about a house with an area of 114.7 square metres, which was purchased in 2018. However, the official owner is Halyna Mykhailivna Kalinina, presumably Yevhen's mother, although she is not listed as a family member in his declaration. Kalinin also declared a land plot on which his house is located, but he does not own the property rights to it — he only has the right to use this asset.
Regarding vehicles, Yevhen Kalinin owns a 2017 Land Rover Discovery, which was purchased in early 2023 for 1.2 million hryvnias. This is the only car listed in his declaration.
Kalinin earns the majority of his income at Naftogaz, where his annual income amounted to 5.59 million hryvnias. In addition, he received charitable aid from the company in the amount of 25,000 hryvnias.
An interesting aspect is his participation in cryptocurrency markets. Although income from cryptocurrency operations is only 23,000 hryvnias, this indicates his interest in cryptocurrencies. Yevhen Kalinin holds 67,000 US dollars in cash and has accounts in foreign banks, such as Monzo Bank (United Kingdom) and PKO Bank (Poland).
In his declaration, Kalinin listed a significant cryptocurrency portfolio acquired in 2024 through the Binance cryptocurrency platform. As of 31 December 2024, his portfolio includes:
Tether (USDT) — 6,271 units, valued at 263,567 hryvnias.
Dogecoin (DOGE) — 1.1840 units, valued at 9 hryvnias.
Ethereum (ETH) — 0.0001 units, valued at 9 hryvnias.
Chainlink (LINK) — 0.0098 units, valued at 10 hryvnias.
Worldcoin (WLD) — 0.083 units, valued at 11 hryvnias.
Solana (SOL) — 0.0006 units, valued at 5 hryvnias.
Aptos (APT) — 0.0125 units, valued at 6 hryvnias.
Achain (ACT) — 0.3 units, valued at 4 hryvnias.
Polkadot (DOT) — 0.007 units, valued at 2 hryvnias.
The total value of Kalinin's cryptocurrency portfolio is 263,600 hryvnias, with approximately 99% of this amount attributable to Tether (USDT), which is the most liquid cryptocurrency. The remainder of the portfolio consists of coins that are likely experimental investments.
In addition, in 2024, Kalinin made a purchase of intangible assets worth 234,359 hryvnias. This transaction correlates with his crypto assets, although the purchase amount exceeds the declared value of the portfolio.
