SKB-Bank hits low credit-risk rating

According to Bankir.ru, thirty-five Russian banks (including one bank located in Chelyabinsk Region, three banks in Sverdlovsk Region, and three Tyumen Region-based banks) belong to the low credit-risk category. SKB-Bank was able to become one of the banks thus rated.

Bankir.ru’s experts report that the bank’s resource base is fairly diverse both in ways of attracting finances and in terms of currencies; the resource cost meets the market standards, and the risk of a sudden outflow of funds that could hurt the company is very low.

SKB-Bank is more likely to develop in a positive rather than just stable way, the analysts say. They also speak very highly of the quality of the bank management. SKB-Bank is quite transparent and can boast effective public relations. The risks related to arrival of new shareholders or poor management can be characterized as rather insignificant. Overall, the bank enjoys a nice business reputation, the experts say.
