According to him, the most important one would be a request to AlixPartners to help restore the money and capital that have been removed from CCB.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>There is no clarity whether BDIF has set such a task for the company. Apparently it was a mistaken Request for Proposal, without any clarity whether this is due to incompetence or other reasons. This second part &#8211; the discovery and return of illegally drained resources is severely compromised<\/em>,&#8221; said Andreev before Faktor.bg<\/p>\n<p>The text of the Request for Proposal clearly shows that the contractor was asked to do something of the sort, namely:<\/p>\n<p><em>To obtain and inforce interim injunctions (in support of domestic claims and foreign proceedings), including freezing and search orders, enforce judgements in various jurisdictions, etc.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The assignments can be seen below. Judging by the Request for Proposal, the report should be an interesting reading, but the limitation to be accessible only to MPs does not allow an independent expert assessment whether the assignment has been fulfilled.
