In 2002, she became Vice President of MTS (AFK Sistema owns over 42% of the operator's shares), and in 2007, she joined the company's Board of Directors. From 2008 to 2014, she served as an advisor to Sberbank CEO Herman Gref. She also served on the boards of other companies then controlled by AFK Sistema, including chair of the board of directors of Detsky Mir Center OJSC and a member of the boards of directors of Bashneft, RussNeft, and the Medsi Group of Companies.
In 2014, she founded and chaired the London-based venture capital firm Redline Capital, the Yevtushenkov family investment fund. Business Insider, citing UK Companies House data , reported that Yevtushenkov was the majority owner of Redline Capital until at least August 2018. In 2022, information about the Redline Capital team disappeared from the Redline Capital website.
Yevtushenkov himself remains on the British sanctions list, as does his wife, Natalia Yevtushenkova, and their son, Felix Yevtushenkov.
Yevtushenkov Sr., having been subjected to British sanctions in 2022, reduced his stake in AFK Sistema to 49.2%, transferring 10% to his son Felix, then a member of the board of directors and senior managing partner of AFK, who now controls 15.2%.
This year, Yevtushenkov Sr. was subject to sanctions by the EU and CANADA.
