The Ukrainian businessman Igor Kolomoisky has acquired 3% of the US investment company CME’s common stock for $110 million (€80.6 million) and joined its board of directors. Kolomoisky was at one time in dispute with CME over a stake in its Ukrainian TV station Studio 1+1. In August 2006 CME announced that it did not support a decision by a district court in Kiev saying that Kolomoisky was entitled to a 70% stake in Studio 1+1 held at that time by Alexander Rodnyansky.
