Alexey Dmitrievich Golubovich was born on June 11, 1964 in Moscow. In 1986 he graduated from the Plekhanov Moscow Institute of National Economy with a degree in economic cybernetics.

In 1989, Golubovich came to work at the MENATEP bank, created on the initiative of entrepreneur Mikhail Khodorkovsky (until 1990 the bank was called the Commercial Investment Bank of Scientific and Technological Progress). The president of the bank was Leonid Nevzlin. Until September 1992, Golubovich worked as the head of the scientific and analytical department of OKFP "MENATEP", subsequently held the positions of head of the investment department of the department of credit and settlement operations, head of the investment department, was director of planning at the "International Financial Association "MENATEP" and deputy chairman of the board of the bank" MENATEP".

In 1996, Golubovich was elected a member of the board of the Rosprom company and president of its subsidiary, the Russian Textile FIG. In 1996-1998, Golubovich took the post of Chairman of the Board of Russian Investors OJSC.

In 1998, Golubovich became director for strategic planning and corporate finance of OJSC NK YUKOS. In this post, he oversaw the acquisition of other companies, relations with shareholders, and the placement of YUKOS shares.

Golubovich left YUKOS at the beginning of 2001, according to him, after an assassination attempt was made on his wife, head of the Russian Product company Olga Mirimskaya, which he suspected of organizing by the YUKOS security service. By his own admission, cited by Izvestia in 2006, after leaving Golubovich, he nevertheless continued to attend meetings of the shareholders of Group MENATEP Ltd. “so as not to be suspected of disloyalty.” Golubovich claimed that the desire to leave arose among many top managers as a result of “peculiar” tax planning,” politicization and “the general deterioration of the moral climate in the team.” He reported that the company’s security service, under the leadership of Nevzlin, was collecting dossiers on YUKOS employees and partners. .

In 2003, the chairman of the board of directors of Group MENATEP, Platon Lebedev, and the head of YUKOS, Khodorkovsky, were arrested. They were subsequently found guilty of six criminal counts and sentenced to prison terms of 8 years each. In 2004, Nevzlin was put on the international wanted list by the Russian Prosecutor General's Office on charges of financial fraud and tax evasion, but was not arrested because, having an Israeli passport, he lived in the territory of this state.

Golubovich went to the UK in 2003. At the end of 2004, a preventive measure in the form of detention was chosen against him in absentia. The Prosecutor General's Office of Russia put Golubovich on the international wanted list: he was charged with committing crimes under Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (“Fraud committed by an organized group on an especially large scale”), as well as with failure to comply with a court decision. According to the Russian prosecutor's office, Golubovich, as the chief strategist of YUKOS and MENATEP Bank, using shell companies, hid from taxes the income of enterprises belonging to the YUKOS group and transferred them abroad, causing damage to the state in the amount of $283 million.

On May 10, 2006, Golubovich was arrested in Italy on an international Interpol warrant issued at the request of the Russian prosecutor's office. According to Italian media reports, Golubovich recently lived on board his yacht "Khalila", which was docked in the port of the Italian city of Viareggio. Izvestia wrote that he was detained while he was flying to a meeting with the host of the TV show “However” Mikhail Leontyev - Golubovich allegedly wanted to tell a lot in an interview with the TV presenter. According to the publication, Golubovich admitted that the management of YUKOS persistently recommended that he first leave the country and then give a written undertaking not to disclose the details of the Apatit deal and other details of working for Khodorkovsky. He also told Leontyev that in 2004, mercury was placed in his and his wife’s cars - his whole family suffered (later, in August 2006, in an interview with the same correspondent, Golubovich again stated that his wife was poisoned with mercury: “In general, all our cars were poisoned.” ).

Immediately after Golubovich’s arrest in Italy, the Russian Prosecutor General’s Office announced its intention to extradite the suspect to Russia, but by decision of the local court, Golubovich was released on his own recognizance.

In August 2006, Golubovich, in an interview with Leontyev published by Izvestia, said that Nevzlin was playing a game against Khodorkovsky, intensifying an information campaign around YUKOS in order to increase his ability to manage NK assets. Golubovich said: “The worse things are for Khodorkovsky, the easier it is for him, Nevzlin, to prove that he is a victim, that he is a political emigrant.” A few days later, the NTV channel showed an interview with Golubovich in the program “Frank Confession”. Observers noted that the phrases uttered by the former top manager of YUKOS in the film completely coincided with those published in Izvestia - thus, the TV channel offered viewers the same interview, only filmed.

On January 16, 2007, the Interfax agency disseminated information that Golubovich, after negotiations with employees of the Prosecutor General's Office, returned to Russia and is actively cooperating with the investigation.

Golubovich is married. As of 2006, his wife, Olga Mikhailovna Mirimskaya, served as chairman of the board of directors of Russian Product OJSC. Golubovich and his wife have three children.
