Last year, the income of the families of five deputies of the Odesa Regional Council reached 469 million

Deputies of the Odesa Regional Council declared a total income of UAH 1 billion 160 million for 2025.

The Center for Public Investigations and Intent analyzed the wealth of the richest and compared it to the previous year.

It turned out that out of 75 MPs, almost half a billion hryvnias is the income of the families of only five MPs.

The income ranking in 2025 was headed by MP from the Servant of the People political party, Oleg Kutateladze, with 295.6 million hryvnias of total family income. This is 10% less than last year: in 2024, the family declared UAH 328.1 million. Kutateladze's personal income decreased from 316.3 to 281.6 million, while his wife Valentyna Mushynska's income slightly increased from 11.8 to 13.9 million.

The structure of the MP's income is unchanged: it is mainly dividends from his own companies. The largest share is 166.8 million hryvnias from the Cyprus-based Hique Management Ltd. Next are TIS-Ugol LLC (44.9 million hryvnias), Transinvestservice (22.3 million), Consul (16 million), Nobilis Fund (5.7 million) and TIS-Ruda (1.5 million). Another 19 million came from the repayment of government bonds and interest. His wife earned 8.7 million hryvnias from renting property of Transinvestservice and 2.6 million hryvnias in dividends from Vita-555 LLC.

Serhiy Parashchenko Jr. of the party "For the Future" took second place: UAH 50.2 million, all from his personal funds. A year ago, he was in the top five with UAH 20.3 million, meaning his income more than doubled. Right behind him is Yuriy Kruk from Trust the Deeds: UAH 49.3 million in family income (UAH 42.3 million in personal income). But there is a significant nuance here: UAH 41.4 million of this amount is an inheritance from Yuriy (Borysovych) Kruk's father. The rest is formed by salaries at Trans-Service and UNTK LLC and UAH 7 million of his wife's entrepreneurial income. A year ago, Kruk was not in the top five in terms of income at all.

The fourth is the non-factual Knyaz Khachatryan with UAH 41.8 million, all of which is personal. His main source is Berezivkaagroshlyakhbud LLC: UAH 33 million in dividends and UAH 5.2 million in salary, plus UAH 3.5 million in business income. In 2024, Khachatryan is ranked second in the ranking with UAH 39.7 million, meaning he earns slightly more, although he has dropped a notch due to the emergence of new players.

The fifth is the former head of the Odesa Regional State Administration and representative of the "For the Future" party Serhiy Parashchenko Sr. with UAH 34.3 million of personal funds. The basis is agricultural dividends from Tashlyk Agrofirm (UAH 14.2 million), Pavlivka-Agro Trade (UAH 8.4 million) and Company USS LLC (UAH 9.7 million), supplemented by 17 in-kind gifts from Parashchenko's brother Oleksandr, worth hundreds of thousands of hryvnias each.

Outside the top five, but among the notable: Alla Hinak from "For the Future" - UAH 13.7 million, Oleksandr Malaniuk from "Servant of the People" - UAH 11.1 million, Maryna Zinchenko, also from "Servant of the People" - UAH 9.9 million, of which UAH 8.4 million came from the alienation of real estate. The representative of the European Solidarity party, Fevzi Mamutov, should be noted separately: the bulk of his income is a gift from his wife in cash.
