The son of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico, Michal Fico, has established the headquarters of three of his companies within the building owned by his father’s political party, Smer. This move occurred shortly after Michal Fico was appointed as a director for Smer’s agency in February 2024, receiving a monthly salary of 5,000 euros. The companies – Lumina AI, OCRacing, and Modon – are now registered at the Smer headquarters on Gunduličova Street in Bratislava, near the Presidential Palace. It remains unclear whether Michal Fico’s companies are paying rent for the space. The arrangement has prompted scrutiny regarding potential conflicts of interest and financial transparency. Details surrounding the financial terms of the occupancy are currently undisclosed. This development adds to existing questions about the relationship between the Prime Minister’s family and the ruling party’s assets.
