With Deutsche Bank having issued a margin call, meaning that securities have decreased in value past a certain point, Zanadvorov will now be forced to either deposit more money in the account or to sell off some assets.
According to Russian daily Kommersant, Zanadvorov is considering the possibility of selling the supermarket group in order to repay the loan.
