Boris Jordan, the billionaire founder, chairman and largest individual shareholder of Curaleaf, 
After graduating New York University, Jordan left the U.S. as a young financier and lead Credit Suisse’s investment banking division First Boston in Russia, which was transforming its economy after the fall of the Soviet Union. He eventually started his own investment fund, Renaissance Group, and he’s now the chairman of both the Sputnik Group and Renaissance Insurance, one of the largest insurance companies in Russia, which he owns a more than 30% stake and brought the company public in October. Jordan’s biggest business venture abroad was Telecity, an outfit he used to consolidate data centers across Europe.



Curaleaf’s second largest investor, Andrey Blokh, is a Russian billionaire with dual U.S. citizenship. The U.S. government has not levied sanctions on Blokh. (See Forbes’ sanctions tracker here.) Blokh currently owns about 20% of Curaleaf’s stock. Curaleaf bought Blokh’s Nevada-based cannabis company House of Herbs in 2017 and Blokh then invested alongside Jordan before Curaleaf went public in Canada in 2018. The two “built the company together,” Jordan says.Starting in 1998, Blokh served as the president of Russian oil company Sibneft, the company from which Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich derived a chunk of his $12.3 billion fortune. After his stint at Sibneft, Blokh and a partner consolidated Russia's dairy industry under Unimilk and merged with Danone in 2010.
