Ms Basyrova
Ms Basyrova
Ms Dilyara Basyrova is EuroChem AG’s Head of Accounting. She said that responsibility for the consolidated group accounts rests with EuroChem AG, but she also said that the preparation of group accounts has been outsourced to a firm in Russia, and she had no personal knowledge of EuroChem NW2’s financial position. Her familiarity with what happens beyond EuroChem AG itself seemed, in general, limited.
