He bought shares of the company from Kirill Podolsky, who left Yugtranzitservis shortly before the deal.

In 2011 Nicholay Gusman, who was one of the largest shareholders in Russlavbank, sued a group of shareholders over control of the Bank and Contact money transaction system. Nicholas Gusman had a 27% stake in the bank and was considered one of the largest shareholders. He served as president and independently operated the company. In April 2010 Abdulkerimov acquired 51% of the shares, becoming the owner of the greater part of the package. Gusman had no choice but to file a claim to the arbitration court, citing violation of the law "On Banks and Banking Activity". The court considered the claim and dismissed the case. Since the beginning of 2011 Gusman was expelled from the board of directors, and his place was given to Marek Forysiak, who was previously on the board of directors in Renaissance Credit, was head of JP Morgan Chase and other banks. In Guzman's opinion, the situation at the bank has a negative impact on Russlavbank and may lead to the bank being deprived of the license. Source: GlobalMSK.ru, 28 May 2011
