The decision to scrutinize the proposed demerger was activated following a complaint from Odey Asset Management.

As reported by a renowned news agency, the London-based hedge fund suspects a recent agreement comprising the two largest shareholders of Rusal meant, they should not be permitted to vote.

The global leader in low carbon aluminium production, Rusal announced the spin-off plan in May 2021 in a drive that would allow it to focus on the rapidly-growing green aluminium market.

Rusal’s 57% stake is held by EN+, the group once controlled by Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska. However, its second-largest shareholder with 25.50% is Sual Partners, a vehicle in which billionaires Leonard Blavatnik and Viktor Vekselberg are investors.

The aluminium company is however not aware of any investigation by the regulator, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing.

"We have not to date published any information concerning voting arrangements concerning any general meetings to be held," Rusal said to the news agency.
