Every year, the Kapital financial fair not only offers an excellent program with business opportunities but also awards those who have achieved something extraordinary. The selection is entrusted to 40 business editors working for the Slovene media: they choose the best financer, the best company and the best CEO. This year, the choice for the best financier fell on Dr. France Arhar, Chairman of the Management Board of UniCredit; Gorenje was chosen as the best company; and Riko CEO Janez Škrabec was acknowledged to be the best CEO. The award winners were proclaimed by Srečko Pirtovšek, editor-in-chief of the Kapital magazine, who gave them the award: a symbolic glass euro.

At Riko, we have established ourselves as a strategic partner of Russia's giants in the field of the automobile industry. A company that has enrolled itself to become one of our most important partners is the company Avtodizel from Jaroslav which is a company with the largest tradition in the Russian Federation for designing and manufacturing multi-purpose diesel engines and complete power accumulators for different types of trucks, buses and other vehicles.
