Wealth is growing, income is falling: declarations of Mykolaiv MPs for 2025

(ILLUSTRATION: Intent/AI)

In their financial statements for 2025, MPs from Mykolaiv region showed a mixed picture: some significantly increased their land assets, while others declared less income and savings than a year earlier. The Center for Public Investigations, together with Intent, analyzed the MPs' declarations and compiled ratings by key categories.

The study included majoritarian MPs: Maksym Dyrdin, Oleksandr Haidu, Ihor Kopytin, Ihor Negulevskyi, Oleksandr Pasichnyi and Artem Chornomorov, as well as list members from Mykolaiv region: David Arakhamia, Olena Moshenets, and Iryna Kormyshkina. All of them are representatives of the presidential party "Servant of the People".

To recap: In February 2025, Iryna Kormyshkina resigned her parliamentary mandate ahead of schedule after a criminal case was opened on illegal enrichment. Her husband Yuriy Kormyshkin is also involved in the case. However, she was obliged to submit her annual declaration for 2024 regardless.

Who earned and who lost money

Just like last year, Iryna Kormyshkina's family is at the top of the income ranking with UAH 50.7 million in total income, of which the declarant received UAH 3.2 million personally. The main sources of income are her salary in the Verkhovna Rada (UAH 300 thousand for a partial year before she resigned), part-time salary in PAEK-AGRO and PAEK-Trade LLC (UAH 2.2 million in total), and income from renting property in the same PAEK-AGRO (UAH 704 thousand). The vast majority of the family income is accounted for by her husband Yuriy: UAH 17.7 million in dividends from PAEK-AGRO, UAH 20 million in dividends from PAEK-YUZHEN and UAH 5.9 million from business activities.

Compared to 2024, when the family declared UAH 67.1 million (including UAH 49 million in dividends), the total income fell by almost 25%. However, even at the new levels, it is an order of magnitude higher than any of his peers in the region.

Oleksandr Pasichnyi is in second place with UAH 5 million of family income (UAH 1.7 million personally). In 2024, the family declared UAH 5.9 million, so the figure has slightly dropped, but remains stable: his wife continues to be an entrepreneur.

Maksym Dyrdin is in third place with UAH 3.8 million in total, of which only UAH 0.8 million is personal. He is one of the few MPs whose family income increased over the year: in 2024, the family declared UAH 3.1 million.

David Arakhamia - UAH 3.4 million of family income (UAH 1.2 million personally). The sharp drop compared to 2024 (UAH 9.3 million) is simply explained: a year ago, the amount included UAH 7.1 million from a one-time sale of non-residential premises, while this year there were no such revenues.

Artem Chornomorov rounds out the top five with UAH 1.7 million. All this amount is personal, without additional family sources. For the third year in a row, his income has remained at the same level.

Whose cash is heavier

The Kormyshkin family also leads in the savings category, with UAH 86.8 million in total, of which Iryna herself has UAH 10.2 million.

The declaration shows the details: she keeps UAH 7.6 million in cash, another $12,500 in cash, and about UAH 865 thousand in accounts with OTP Bank, Raiffeisen, and VST Bank. A separate line: UAH 13.8 million declared as a loan... to his own husband.

Yuriy Kormyshkin has UAH 57.5 million in cash plus USD 400 thousand (~ UAH 16.4 million). In addition, he lent UAH 60 million to Viktor Viktorovych Chukh and another UAH 2.49 million to Denys Serhiiovych Yermyshyn (more on him below). The account in Montenegro's Zapad Banka is a small amount (1,114 euros), but the fact of having an account in a foreign bank is noteworthy.

Compared to 2024 (UAH 174 million in total), the family's savings have halved. The decrease is partly explained by payments under the HACCJ verdict: in 2025, UAH 1 million was declared to support the Armed Forces and UAH 20 million in damages - both payments "according to the verdict of 21.03.2025".

It is noteworthy that Iryna Pavlivna Zhdanova, a person who is not identified as a relative in the declaration, has the dispositive rights to the Kormyshkins' accounts in Raiffeisen, OTP, VST, Privatbank, Accordbank, and Kredobank.

The second position was taken by David Arakhamia with 42.4 million UAH of total savings, 35.9 million of which are his own. In 2024, he personally had UAH 44.9 million, of which 36.3 million was in cash at home. That is, there was a little less cash - by about UAH 3 million.

Oleksandr Pasichnyi - UAH 13.7 million in total (UAH 3.1 million personally). We have an increase compared to 2024 (UAH 11.3 million).

Ihor Negulevskyi - UAH 12.7 million, all personal. Almost nothing has changed here: in 2024, it was UAH 12.9 million.

Oleksandr Haidu - UAH 8.8 million, all personal. In 2024 - UAH 8.6 million. Stable.

<span>Squares redistributed</span>

Once again, Iryna Kormyshkina is at the top of the list. In 2024, she took the fourth place in the CPR rating, as she declared 348 square meters per family. In 2025, she and her husband had 857 square meters of housing. The former MP owns 541 square meters. The sharp jump can be explained by the purchase of a 253.5-square-meter house near Odesa in the village of Tairove for UAH 1.6 million.

In addition, in 2025, she personally registered half of an apartment in Mykolaiv (63 square meters, jointly owned). The family's main home is a rented house of 541.3 square meters in the same Tairovo, with an estimated value of UAH 15.6 million. Formally, the house belongs to K 1st Group LLC. However, this company is 100% owned by the same Yuriy Kormyshkin. A classic "renting from myself" situation.

David Arakhamia is the next in terms of the number of residential squares. The MP himself owns a house in Vita-Poshtova in Kyiv region and an apartment in Kyiv (366.2 square meters in total), while his wife owns three apartments in the capital and a house near Mykolaiv (211.5 square meters). Compared to previous years, the real estate of the Arakhamia family has not changed.

Similarly, Oleksandr Haidu 's residential real estate has not changed - 486 square meters. The MP has two houses in Odesa and an apartment in Kyiv.

Maksym Dyrdin has also been declaring his two MP apartments near Kyiv and a house with two apartments owned by his wife for several years in a row. In total, they have almost 351 square meters of residential real estate.

And the last place with 217 square meters is occupied by Oleksandr Pasichnyi. The MP has two apartments in Mykolaiv, and his wife has another apartment in the same city. Compared to 2024, the situation has not changed: back then, the family also declared 217 square meters of housing.

Stable business footprint

The Kormyshkin family is in the lead with 5,061 square meters of non-residential premises - and again, all belongs to the man: office space in Mykolaiv (570 square meters, valued at UAH 4.9 million), a warehouse and business complexes (gas station, grain storage, workshops, garage) in Novopetrivka village, and an administrative building in Kalynivka. These are exactly the same facilities as in 2024.

Oleksandr Pasichnyi - 694 square meters (shops, studios and premises in Mykolaiv), all personal. Unchanged since 2022.

David Arakhamia - 116 square meters (share of non-residential premises in Mykolaiv). No changes.

Maxim Dyrdin - 107 square meters (garages and non-residential premises near Kyiv). No changes.

Olena Moshenets - 51 square meters.

The Kormyshkins are increasing their hectares

In this ranking, the Kormyshkins' gap with everyone else is measured not in percentages, but in orders of magnitude.

In 2025, the Kormyshkin family declared 401.5 hectares of total land assets - 163.8 hectares for Iryna personally, the rest for her husband. For comparison: in 2022, the family had ~115 hectares, in 2024 - 332 hectares. The increase over the year was more than 70 hectares.

In 2025, Kormyshkina personally registered 14 new plots of land that were not available in 2024: land in Tairovo, Baitaly, Zherebkove and Ananievo in Odesa region, as well as in Velykoserbulivka, Kalynivka and Taborivka in Mykolaiv region. The total declared value of these transactions is UAH 8.44 million. The man's land has also expanded: new tracts appeared in Odesa region instead of some of the Mykolaiv plots he had acquired earlier.

To understand the scale: 401 hectares is more than the area of some Ukrainian rural communities.

Maxim Dyrdin is in second place: 11.2 hectares, all with his wife, near Kyiv.

The rest of the declared plots are much more modest: Artem Chornomorov - 0.31 hectares, David Arakhamia - 0.12 hectares, Oleksandr Haidu - 0.04 hectares.

Riders, but not owners

In 2024, the Kormyshkin family topped the ranking with 31 vehicles, including trucks and trailers. In 2025, the picture changed dramatically: only one car was listed in the declaration, and it was rented. A 2024 Bentley Bentayga - Iryna Kormyshkina uses it on the basis of a lease from Denys Yermyshyn. The same person to whom her husband lent UAH 2.49 million. That is, the Bentley is rented from the family's debtor.

Oleksandr Pasichnyi owns 4 cars, none of which are registered to him. His wife has a BMW X6, Mitsubishi Outlander, Audi Q7; his son has a BMW X4. The scheme has not changed since 2022.

David Arakhamia - 3 vehicles: in 2024, they were a BRP ATV and a Mercedes-Benz S350D for his wife. In 2025, the same three vehicles in total, none of them personally.

Olena Moshenets - 3 cars, 2 personal.

Maksym Dyrdin and Artem Chornomorov - 2 personal cars each. Ihor Haidu and Ihor Negulevskyi - one personal car each.

Jewelry

This block in the Kormyshkins' declarations is striking in its own right.

Iryna Kormyshkina: a Zenith Defy Midnight watch (310 thousand UAH), a Bvlgari engagement ring (305 thousand UAH) and - purchased in February 2025, i.e. after the NABU proceedings were opened - a Van Cleef & Arpels Magic Alhambra pendant for 402.8 thousand UAH. Yuriy Kormyshkin has three Rolex watches - for UAH 392 thousand, UAH 999 thousand and UAH 1,255,000 (the last one was bought in December 2024), plus a Bvlgari ring for UAH 305 thousand.

David Arakhamia is in second place. He declared a set of diamond jewelry, a Cartier watch, and several pieces of jewelry from Bvlgari and Chopard that belong to his wife. The MP himself owns several Rolex, Breitling and Breguet watches. In addition, his collection includes two modular houses, one of which he bought in 2023 for 782 thousand hryvnias, and the other in 2024 for 2.4 million hryvnias.

Oleksandr Haidu also has a collection of expensive watches. The MP declared Corum Admirals Cup, Omega, and Jaquet Droz. Although he did not specify the exact cost of the first two, the Jaquet Droz watch cost him 621 thousand hryvnias in 2016.

To summarize, the declarations of MPs from Mykolaiv region for 2025 confirm several stable patterns. The land bank of the Kormyshkin family continues to grow even after they resigned and a criminal case was opened - from 115 to more than 400 hectares in three years. Savings of the ranking leaders have decreased, but remain incompatible with official salaries. Most cars and some real estate are traditionally not registered to MPs themselves, but thanks to the "own company - own rent" scheme, the Kormyshkin family lives in a 541-meter-long house that is "not theirs."
