Gegham Gevorgyan, the chairman of the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, speaking about the comprehensive healthcare insurance during the press conference, mentioned that his wife's insurance is provided by his wife's company, which, "if I am not mistaken, it is 1000 drams". And who is Gevorgyan's wife, and which company pays for Gegham Gevorgyan's health care?
Gegham Gevorgyan's wife, Hripsime Musheghyan, received an annual income of 35 million 604 thousand drams, according to the 2024 annual declaration. 32 million 433 thousand drams from the income is wages from "Yerevan Brandy Factory" CJSC, where the latter is the head of legal and corporate affairs. 1 million drams is from "Brandy Bridge" company, again a salary for work.
It should be noted that "Ararat" brandy-wine-vodka combine with "Yerevan brandy factory" PB company created "Brandy Bridge" closed joint-stock company with equal shares (50%-50%). "Ararat" trademarks (in English and Russian) were transferred to "Brandy Bridge" CJSC.
Of the income, Musheghyan received 1 million 486 thousand drams from the RA Ministry of Finance, 84 thousand drams was insurance compensation, and 598 thousand drams was other income from "Ameriabank" CJSC.
Gevorgyan's wife also received a donation of bonds from Pernod Ricard in 2022 with a value of 25 thousand 86 euros. On what occasion the wife of the chairman of the Competition Protection Commission received such a donation from a private company, the declaration does not state. However, it should be noted that the Pernod Ricard company is a large company that imports drinks.
It turns out that the health insurance of Gegham Gevorgyan, the chairman of the Commission for the Protection of Competition and Consumer Interests, is provided by "Yerevan Brandy Factory" CJSC.
Whether the chairman of the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission does not see a problem here is questionable."
