2. VTB( 48,322 million rubles)

The most unprofitable Russian banks

5. MTS-Bank( 666 million rubles)

4. National Reserve Bank( 737 million rubles)

The loss of the bank significantly decreased compared to the same period last year( by 66%).However, it is not yet possible to reach a positive financial result for the NRB.Perhaps, the credit organization is gradually "winding down" activities, becausemanagement is actively reducing the staff of the bank.

3. Renaissance Credit( 744 million rubles)

If the financial result of the bank is not happy, then the growth of its assets is impressive. Compared to the three quarters of last year, this indicator grew by almost 38%.Since the bank specializes in consumer lending, the losses can be explained by the addition of reserves for possible losses on loans. Additional redundancy is associated with tightening the requirements of the Central Bank.

2. Petrocommerce( 1 279 million rubles)

Last year, the bank showed a profit on the results of three quarters. However, this year, despite the losses, Petrocommerce managed to increase assets by 7% and still remains an influential player in the banking market.

1. MDM Bank( RUB 2,660 million)

The most unprofitable bank of Russia last year on October 1 showed the presence of profit. In the bank, this situation is explained by the fact that the loss arose because of the Central Bank's demands for additional reserves. Until the end of the year, the bank expects a refund from the reservation.
