Kont Bank

Kont Investment Bank was a Tajiki investment bank operating in Dushanbe, under license from National Bank of Tajikistan.

The bank's chairman was Fayzullo Salikhov.

[2][3] The Kont Investment Bank was founded in 2011 by Iranian entrepreneur Babak Zanjani, who held investments in several Tajik businesses, including a bank, an airline, a taxi service, and a bus terminal that Tajik President Imomali Rahmon himself helped inaugurate in March 2013.

[4] The bank came under scrutiny by the US Treasury Service, as a possible money laundering entity which was suspected of moving large sums of oil-related money on behalf the Iranian government.

[4] Zanjani reportedly sold the bank in 2015, and was then wholly owned by R. S.
