Mr Belyaev, chairman of Otkritie’s board and its largest shareholder, will resume his post as chief executive after two years away, the company announced on Monday. He replaces Alexei Karakhan, who had been in charge of Otkritie’s marketing and communications department before unexpectedly being promoted to lead the company last December. Barely known as recently as five years ago, Otkritie surged to become Russia’s largest non-state bank by acquiring other lenders with state funds and performing one enormous repo deal that saw it double its assets overnight. Its parent company, Otkritie Holding, has been active on the M&A market of late. In the last nine months, Otkritie bought a diamond mine for $1.4bn from one of its shareholders, acquired a network of cinemas, fell short of a tender to acquire e-payments company Qiwi, and is also in the process of taking over Rosgosstrakh, Russia’s largest insurer.

Sberbank (Sberbank, Russian: Сбербанк, initially a contraction of "сберегательный банк" - sbieriegatielny bank; English: "Savings bank") is a state-owned Russian banking and financial services company headquartered in Moscow. The company was known as "Sberbank of Russia" until 2015. Sberbank has operations in several European and post-Soviet countries.
- Sberbank's history goes back to Cancrin's financial reform of 1841,^[5] when a network of the first state-owned savings banks was created in Russia. By the end of the 19th century, the network reached almost 4 thousand outlets with over 2 million depositors. Since 1905, savings bank outlets became authorised to sell insurance. After 1910, savings banks started subsidising credit cooperation institutions and extending loans to small lenders. In 1915, savings bank outlets started accepting government securities for depositing. After the October Revolution of 1917, the state savings banks system continued its activity and growth under the management of the Finance Ministry of the USSR as the State Labour Savings Banks System. From 1926, the saving bank outlets were used to pay wages to blue- and white-collar workers. The savings banks were used to distribute state lottery tickets and for the placement of state bonds with the population. The savings banks introduced wider services such as money transfers.

Moscow Narodny Bank Limited (MNB), London was created as an independent bank in 1919 on the basis of the London branch of the Moscow Narodny Bank, which had operated in London since 1915. In 1919 due to disruption of relations with the parent company due to nationalization in Russia it was decided to protect the right of the London branch of the bank to exist and incorporate it as a British legal entity. The bank heads Jean Bubnov and Konstantin Popov submitted an application to register it as an English limited liability company, which was registered in London on October 18, 1919 as a company of England and Wales under number No.159752.

•  So when it emerged that Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law and special adviser, had met the ailing state development bank’s chairman Sergei Gorkov in New York in December, it set alarm bells ringing with US investigators examining ties between Mr Trump’s inner circle and some of the Kremlin’s power-brokers. Now an institution founded by Lenin, once chaired by Mr Putin and subject to international sanctions has been drawn into the spreading inquiry, widely termed “Russiagate”, as speculation continues over what Mr Gorkov and Mr Kushner discussed at the meeting just weeks before Mr Trump was installed in the White House.Without a banking licence, central bank regulation or an independent board, VEB is not a bank in any conventional sense. Instead it is essentially an instrument of the Kremlin that has become a special-purpose vehicle to support priority projects from Moscow. Mr Gorkov was last year chosen by Mr Putin to lead a turnround of VEB after it racked up huge financial losses. But bankers and analysts in Moscow say its difficulties are an inevitable consequence of decisions stemming from Mr Putin’s revamp of the institution a decade ago.During the four years Mr Putin spent as VEB chairman while Russia’s prime minister, lending to support the Kremlin’s pet projects was ramped up, regardless of whether they were financially viable. VEB’s leadership say this was necessary to support Russian business, especially after the financial crisis. “We supported projects that never would have had a chance of getting financing from anywhere else,” says a VEB executive. The bank is not subject to central bank capital adequacy requirements and its board, currently led by Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s prime minister, is made up entirely of government officials. “You just call the supervisory board, they take a decision and then VEB invests in some projects which the government thinks are important,” says Karen Vartapetov, an analyst at Standard & Poor’s.
  That approach led VEB to lend billions to fund construction work ahead of the 2014 Sochi Games, as well as spending $8bn on a steel mill in disputed eastern Ukraine. Defaults on the Olympic projects and the conflict that broke out in Ukraine that year mean they now make up a significant proportion of the bank’s non-performing assets.https://www.ft.com/content/14c0cf6a-5409-11e7-80b6-9bfa4c1f83d2

The TsUM interiors have been refurbished many times, most recently in 2007. TsUM is a part of the Mercury Group.In 1857 merchants Andrew Muir (1817–1899) and Archibald Mirrielees (1797–1877), who had arrived in St. Petersburg separately, founded “Muir and Mirrielees” Trade Company.^[1]Archibald Mirrielees was resident in St. Petersburg from 1822. In 1843 he established his own company, one of the most significant Anglo-Russian merchant houses. In the 1880s the company transferred from St. Petersburg to Moscow and acquired a building for their haberdashery shop in Theatre Square. Their new building was erected there in 1908 in the Gothic Revival style with some modern elements. The project was designed by the famous Russian architect Roman Klein. “Muir and Mirrielees” was the first and the largest department store in the last days of the Russian Empire (one could buy clothes, shoes, jewelry, perfumery and toys there). The store attracted the highest public interest: “In the eyes of the Muscovites “Muir and Mirrielees” is a kind of exhibition of everything that was on sale in the capital, be it for the rich and the high society, or for the middle-class customers” wrote one of the contemporaries. The store delivered throughout the Russian empire. The company established a furniture factory and other stores (Торговый дом Хомякова (in Russian), Маросейка (in Russian)). The company was nationalised during the Russian Revolution and the assets confiscated in 1918 by the Bolsheviks, who renamed "Muir & Mirrielees" first as "MosTorg" in 1922 and later as TsUM. In 2013 European Capital Investment Fund, owner of the majority of TsUM's shares, forced a buyout from minority shareholders; the company was subsequently delisted from the Moscow Exchange.

But Kruglov noted the lack of a double taxation treaty between Hong Kong and Russia means its bond investors will be subject to a 20 per cent withholding tax on interest income.  Gazprom raises some US$3 billion to US$4 billion annually from the capital market to finance its capital expenditures.  The US and the EU earlier this month imposed sanctions that prohibit the financing provision and other dealings in new debt of greater than 90 days maturity issued by firms including Gazprom's oil unit Gazprom Neft to punish Russia for its role in the Ukraine conflict.  Meanwhile, Kruglov said Gazprom hopes to seal before the end of the year a second gas supply deal with the mainland so a 30 billion cubic metre (bcm)-a-year pipeline will be built to link China's northwest to existing gas fields in West Siberia.  US$400 billion 30-year gas export deal was signed in May for a pipeline to send 38 bcm of gas annually to northeast China from new fields in East Siberia. He said the pipeline will deliver gas in 2018 in the "best case" and in 2020 in the "conservative case".

• https://www.ft.com/content/32898bae-28f3-11e7-9ec8-168383da43b7 Five European energy companies will each pay €950m to fund a new Gazprom gas pipeline as part of a finance package that clears a significant hurdle for a project that has faced strong resistance from many EU member states. Anglo-Dutch group Royal Dutch Shell, Austria’s OMV, France’s Engie and Germany’s Uniper and Wintershall will each provide loans covering 10 per cent of the €9.5bn cost of the pipeline, with Gazprom providing the remaining 50 per cent. Monday’s announcement marks a significant milestone for one of Europe’s most contentious energy developments, under which Gazprom’s gas would be transported from Russia through a pipeline called Nord Stream 2 running across the Baltic Sea to Greifswald in north-east Germany. The project has been hit by efforts to delay or prevent it by EU officials, amid fears Nord Stream 2 will strengthen Russia’s dominance of the European gas market and help Gazprom reduce its reliance on exporting gas via Ukraine. Gazprom is the EU’s largest gas supplier. A previous plan to fund Nord Stream 2 through a joint venture between Gazprom and the five European energy companies was blocked by Poland.

We have huge demand from this country," said Andrei Guryev, Phosagro chief executive. India is the world's second-largest consumer of phosphate fertilisers and the largest importer of diammonium phosphate (DAP), a key form. But demand has been depressed in recent years, helping to trigger a slump in prices from a high of $660 per tonne in 2011 to around $460 last year.

- parts

• A Russian online store specializing in auto parts sales, Exist.ru, has become the nation's largest Internet shopping site in terms of revenue, the Vedomosti business daily reported Tuesday, citing a recently published study. With an estimated turnover of 35.4 billion rubles ($545 million) in the first half of 2015, Exist.ru was ranked by Internet research agency Data Insight as Russia's largest Internet retailer in a ranking based on data provided by the retailers themselves, and the agency's own research. Founded in 1999, Exist.ru is one of Russia's oldest online retailers. Today, the company claims to process 50,000 orders for auto parts daily, according to data on Exist.ru's website. Analysts polled by Vedomosti attribute Exist.ru's growing revenue to the devaluation of the ruble, which lost nearly half its value against the U.S. dollar last year, driving up the costs of parts for foreign-made automobiles. This has motivated car owners to save money by looking for third-party alternatives to original manufacturer spare parts sold by unauthorized retailers, according to Alexei Leshchenko, chairman of the board of directors of Modus, an official dealer for BMW, Renault and other foreign-made cars, Vedomosti reported. http://www.themoscowtimes.com/business/article/auto-parts-store-existru-becomes-russias-biggest-online-retailer/540496.html?utm_source=email_tmt-editorial&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=55-issue-2015-10-28&utm_content=title_6
