I en tilsvarende kontrovers fik Alfred Kohk, nummer to i Jeltsins regering, når det gjaldt privatisering, 100.000 USD fra et firma, der havde forbindelse til en af de største oligarker, han belønnede med privatiseringskontrakter; meget passende skulle pengene angiveligt være for en bog, han skulle skrive om effektiviteten i de privatiserede virksomheder. Det endte med, at ingen af de pågældende blev retsforfulgt for bogaftalerne.

Mellem 1980 og 1985 steg de relative lønomkostninger blot 66, 1 procent i stedet for de 164, 7 procent, vi anslår i vores rapporter for 1986. I tidsrummet fra 1983-85 steg de relative lønom-kostninger med blot 14, 9 procent og ikke med de 36, 9 procent, det blev oplyst over for verdenssamfundet i 1986. I 1985 steg indekset for lonomkostninger ikke med de 9 procent, vi påstod i RED og Stabsrapporterne, men faldt med 1, 7 procent. Og i 1986 faldt de relative lønomkostninger med iøjnefaldende 46, 5 procent, selvom det ikke kan læses ud af 1987-rapporten eller noget andet sted i Fondens officielle dokumenter”. Ibid., side 17.
