Moldova Steel Works (Romanian: Uzina Metalurgică Moldovenească; Russian: Молдавский металлургический завод) is a steel-producing company in Rîbnița, Transnistria. It accounts for more than half of Transnistrian total industrial output.
Moldova Steel Works was founded in 1985 for reprocessing of scrap metal.[1] In 1998, majority of its shares was sold to Russian energy company Itera and 28.8% of shares was given to the employees of the company. Production peaked in 2000.[2] In 2004, acquired 90% of shares was acquired by Hares Group of Hares Youssef.[3] Moldova Steel Works became owned by group of Russian–Ukrainian oligarchs, including in addition to Hares Youssef also Hryhoriy Surkis, Ihor Kolomoyskyi, Alisher Usmanov, Vadym Novynskyi and Rinat Akhmetov.[4][5] Later the Russian company Metalloinvest, controlled by Alisher Usmanov and Vasily Anisimov, became owner of the company.[2] In 2015, the ownership was returned to the Transnistrian authorities for a symbolic price.[1]
On 14 May 2018, the government of Ukraine included Moldova Steel Works in the list of sanctioned companies, but excluded it from the list on 19 March 2019 after a request by Moldovan Prime Minister Pavel Filip.[1]
