Oh, the dangers of prophesy. "A year of hard work pays off," was how the Financial Times headlined its interview last week with Russia's former richest man, Oleg Deripaska, ahead of a possible initial public offering in Hong Kong for his aluminium group, Rusal.
Not quite. Hong Kong has now delayed the flotation.

Dispatching Deripaska
Oleg Deripaska is set to lose control of aluminium giant Rusal. That's not all that Russia's former richest man has little power over.
Channel 4's Dispatches is set to broadcast an investigation into a cast of our Russian friends next week - entitled Lords, Billionaires and the Russian Connection. It is not expected to be especially complimentary to either Deripaska, or wannabe Arsenal owner, Alisher Usmanov.

Newsnight high on OD?
Tim Whewell's film about Russia's former richest man and Peter Mandelson's best friend - the embattled oligarch Oleg Deripaska - is scheduled to be shown on Newsnight tonight at 10.30pm.
It is rumoured that it will be rather a soft effort. Let's hope not.
Update: The rumours were (unsurpisingly) correct. So a coup for OD's PR man, Roland Rudd. Treble (vodkas) all round!
