Valeriy Ivanovych Khoroshkovskyi (Ukrainian: Валерій Іванович Хорошковський; born 1 January 1969) is a Ukrainian businessman and politician who served as head of the Security Service of Ukraine from 2010 to 2012 and as Minister of Finance and First Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine briefly in 2012. According to Ukrainian and East European media Khoroshkovskyi is one of Ukraine's richest people.[3]
While being in public office Khoroshkovskyi had large stakes in various Ukrainian media and metallurgy industries.[2] In 2006 Khoroshkovskyi stated: "I owned mid-sized businesses that had no kind of political influence. I cannot say I gained something for my business thanks to politics or that I had any political advantages thanks to business".
