The municipal contracts committee of Ural, Khanty-Mansiyskiy Autonomous Region, chose SKB-Bank as the winner of a tender aimed at finding the bank that could deal in opening and administration of private individuals’ accounts and management of bank card transactions involving transferring money meant for supporting orphaned children or children deprived of parental custody.

‘This decision signifies the city council’s trust and means the bank’s services can really boast some very good quality. As for SKB-Bank, we can prove that we are a socially responsible business,’ SKB-Bank’s Urai branch manager Vyacheslav Yakovlev said to UrBC.

The tender’s selection process included a complex evaluation of the banks’ conditions and was targeted at finding the most attractive contract terms. The assessors used such criteria as the commission for transferring the money into one’s bank card account, the amount of ATMs a bank has in Urai, the speed of transactions, the type and the period of a bank card’s validity.
