据一家拍卖商网站称,受制裁的俄罗斯商人德米特里·彭普扬斯基的一艘豪华游艇于8月23日拍卖,此前这位亿万富翁未能偿还摩根大通公司(JPMorgan Chase & Co.)的贷款。
拍卖行Howe Robinson Partners的经纪人奈杰尔·霍利尔表示,这将是自2022年2月俄乌冲突爆发迫使当局扣押世界各地港口的豪华船只以来,第一艘被公开拍卖的超级游艇。
今年3月,英属直布罗陀当局在地中海的入口处扣押了Axioma号游艇。英国广播公司(BBC)称,这艘游艇的价值为6300万英镑,但预计将以低于这个价格拍卖,不过没有透露它是如何获得该估值的。
彭博社在早些时候援引法庭文件报道称,摩根大通公司于今年7月在直布罗陀赢得了一项法庭命令,允许出售这艘240英尺(约73.152米)长的游艇,此前彭普扬斯基拒绝支付与该游艇相关的2060万美元贷款。该行发言人拒绝置评。
霍利尔说,这艘有5层甲板的游艇拥有无边游泳池和3D影院,引发了大量关注,并引用了潜在买家或其调查团队迄今为止的约115次咨询和28次检查。他以保密协议为由,拒绝就该游艇的价值进行置评。

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.
