The history of the business oligarchs in post Soviet Union states is discussed in the following articles: *Russian oligarchs *Ukrainian oligarchs A typical example of a post-Soviet oligarch entity is the Privat Group - a large Ukraine-based transnational business conglomerate comprising dozens of industrial companies in several markets, controlled by only three stakeholders, and not through the stock exchange.
