&#;He is totally without arrogance or strong ideological biases – he does not lecture the Russians on what they should be when they grow up, and as a result, he has been well received by the domestic investment community.&#;

Fedorov, Russia&#;s first modern finance minister under Boris Yeltsin, brought political clout and connections in the Kremlin while Ryan brought a hard-nosed ability to close a deal and rare understanding among foreign financiers on how to do `biznes&#; in Russia.

&#;His recently completed deal with Deutsche is the culmination of a long, and highly successful, build-up of UFG, without the extreme volatility and boom-bust cycle which has characterised other institutions working in this market,&#; added Eric Kraus.

UFG/Deutsche Bank has been a constant force in Russia over the past two decades when many domestic rivals have gone to the wall and even more foreign peers have come and gone.

In Ryan sold 40% of the investment bank UFG for $70m to Deutsche Bank.

Deutsche bought the remaining 60% from the US banker and his colleagues in for the mouth-watering sum of $m in The two-step deal gave Deutsche the platform it coveted and within a year it established an unassailable lead in domestic equity and debt capital market league tables.

Ryan stayed on board as country chief of Deutsche Bank in Moscow as the German lender tried to handle the delicate succession issue.

Key bankers defected to foreign and domestic rivals as lock-ins expired.

In Ryan took the helm at UFG Asset Management, a separate entity, and the same year he and Fedorov raised about $65m by selling a 40% stake in the company to Deutsche. Fedorov&#;s untimely passing in late forced Ryan to stay on at the helm of UFG at a time when he was shifting his family and his focus homeward to Philadelphia.

Deutsche had a buyout option which was exercised this month to buy the remainder of the fund manager.

UFG confirmed to that Ryan and Florian Fenner, who are the company’s managing partners, and the Fedorov family “hold significant stakes” in the firm, but declined to disclose how much they made from the deal.

&#;We confirm that other businesses of UFG Asset Management, namely UFG AM Family of Funds (five hedge funds and several international managed accounts),  UFG Private Equity Funds and UFG Real Estate Funds, are not affected by the deal and will remain independent and in control of UFG Asset Management shareholders,&#; the Moscow-based UFG spokeswoman said.

Minus Deutsche UFG Capital Management, UFG Asset Management has about $bn in assets.

UFG Wealth Management, which is operating as a stand-alone business, is also unaffected by the transaction with Deutsche Bank and will remain independent, the Moscow-based UFG spokeswoman said.

So Ryan, who has tempted the German bank with four nibbles of the UFG cherry, may yet tempt them with his remaining wares in wealth management, private equity and offshore funds.

That midas touch gleamed brightly when he decided to help fund creation of Yandex, a Russian search engine.

Charles ryan ufg biography template Bio Charlie Ryan is a General Partner at Almaz Capital. Charlie focuses on managing later stage companies in Almaz’ portfolio and their exit strategy. His professional career combines top-level expertise and deep knowledge of international markets, and began in with CS First Boston where he was a financial analyst.

Investors would have made a scandalous return if they banked a profit following  its $bn Nasdaq debut in May this year. The stock soared 55% in the first day of trading although it is not known when, or if, Ryan and the other angel investors sold out.

Ryan has parlayed that interest in tech into setting up Almaz Capital Partners, which invests in Russian technology and innovation.

Meanwhile over at Deutsche Bank, the German investment bank has fallen on hard times since Ryan wound down his involvement.

VTB Capital plundered over staff in three years, and insiders said the move was engineered by Yuri Soloviev after he was overlooked as Ryan&#;s replacement.

But Ryan&#;s legacy, as he is wont to remind people, is a diaspora of talented bankers who have gone on from Deutsche Bank and UFG to help build and sustain Russia&#;s capital markets.
