Former Operational Director Ekaterina Golyanova was appointed Deputy Chairperson of SKB-Bank; the decision was taken by the Board of Directors.

‘This new appointment has to do with the bank’s continuous attempts to expand the business and build up infrastructure as well as to improve our operational performance. Our assets doubled last year, and so did the number of offices and subsidiaries. 30 new points of sale were set up in 2006. Both the retail and business areas of the bank’s activity have been developing rapidly, new products and technologies are being introduced all the time. Ms Golyanova is a well-reputed professional who proved her capabilities in the Operational Department, so as Deputy Chairperson, she will be in charge of all the operational activities,’ says the bank’s Chairman Vladimir Pukhov.

Ms Golyanova is going to join Oleg Demin, Yuri Moiseenko, and Sergey Prygunov as the fourth Deputy Chairperson. Besides, there is Alexander Kudryavtsev employed in the capacity of First Deputy Chairman, reports SKB-Bank’s spokesperson.
