Sovcombank has grown in 17 years from a small bank with a capital of 2 million rubles with the only branch in the village of Buoy (a town 100 kilometers from Kostroma with a population of 24 thousand) to the 4th largest and one of the most profitable privately-owned banks in the country with a capital of 133 billion rubles. The Bank currently has 15 thousand employees in 2.4 thousand offices in 1034 towns across the country.

The Group believes that a disciplined execution of its strategy enables it to maintain high profitability and excess capital through the economic cycles and to take advantage of market opportunities as they occur.
