The assets Arkady has sold to his son Igor include 79 percent of drilling company Gazprom Drilling (Bureniye); 28 percent of road construction company Mostotrest; and 33 percent in TPS Real Estate Holding. Igor Rotenberg, in a written statement, told Reuters: "Of course my father gave me a good start in business.
