Potential & profitability Banking in Russia still with very low penetration and therefore high growth potential while being highly attractive in terms of margins and profitability 2. Concentration The core of Russian banking, 80% of total assets, is constituted by approx. 50 banks, while in most international markets half the number of banks is sufficient. In addition with some 1000 registered banks no other major country has such a vast number of small banks. 3. State ownership Compared with other countries (exception Germany) Russia has a a particularly high share of state banks (a 47 % share of statebanks in total assets) and further increase is expected 4. Regional business 15 Tier 1 & 2 regions constitute 66% (Retail Banking) to 80% (Corporate Banking) of total banking assets 10
