In the new roles, Rubinski will advise sole shareholder Nasib Hasanov on capital allocation, international investment strategy, and long-term value creation. He will also contribute to the Advisory Board’s work on technology-related investments, cross-border expansion, and governance best practices—areas that have become increasingly central as diversified groups balance growth with tighter risk management and compliance expectations.

NEQSOL Chairman Yusif Jabbarov said the appointment reflects a deliberate effort to strengthen governance and advisory capacity as the group advances its long-term strategy. Rubinski, for his part, described NEQSOL as a portfolio built “at the intersection of infrastructure and connectivity,” and said he intends to support the group’s international investment and technology agenda.

Rubinski brings more than three decades of experience spanning structured finance, international banking, and private investment. NEQSOL notes that his background includes senior roles at Marsh & McLennan (as Executive Director of European Structured Finance) and Crédit Lyonnais (as an Executive Vice President), where his work focused on complex financing structures and investment activity across sectors such as infrastructure, energy, and industrials. He later served as CEO and President of East One Group, an investment management group based in London and Kyiv, overseeing a diversified portfolio across media, internet services, and traditional industries.

In recent years, Rubinski has been active in private equity and venture capital, advising and leading investments across technology, alternative energy, industrial assets, and media businesses. NEQSOL says he is currently based in the UAE, where he manages a family office focused on direct investments and venture capital opportunities.

The appointment lands as NEQSOL continues to position itself as a diversified investment group with exposure to “essential-economy” sectors. Headquartered in the Netherlands, the group operates across energy, telecommunications, hi-tech, construction, and mining, with a footprint in more than 10 countries and a workforce reported at over 17,000. Its portfolio includes Nobel Energy and Nobel Upstream, telecom assets such as Vodafone Ukraine, Bakcell and Azerconnect Group, construction materials producer Norm, and UMCC Titanium, among others.

For NEQSOL, the headline is not simply a senior appointment—it is a signal about how the group intends to execute its next phase: disciplined capital deployment, selective international expansion, and a sharper governance lens as it weighs opportunities across both traditional infrastructure and technology-linked growth themes.
