In April 2014 B&N Bank became the owner of Moscomprivatbank, a former subsidiary of Ukrainian PrivatBank. The deal was concluded as the part of B&N Bank’s strategy for retail business expansion and approved by Banking Supervision Committee of the Bank of Russia. Due to high social importance of Moskomprivatbank, Deposit Insurance Agency (DIA) provided assistance to B&N Bank in a form of RUB 12bn loan. The loan proceeds will be used for maintenance of Moskomprivatbank’s liquidity and implementation of the project related to creation of independent IT-infrastructure of the credit institution.

In July 2014, B&N Bank successfully closed the acquisition of DNB Russia. “Asokerco Trading Limited” LLC (an entity affiliated with B&N Bank (JSC) owned by Mikail Shishkhanov) has become the owner of JSC Commercial Bank DNB Bank (“DNB Russia”) located in Murmansk.[5] Previously, DNB Russia was a fully owned subsidiary of DNB Bank ASA (“DNB”), the leading Norwegian financial group.

In December 2014 B&N Bank closed the acquisition of five banks of the Rost Group. The deal is a part of financial recovery of Rost Bank, Kedr Bank, Akkobank, SKA-Bank and Tveruniversalbank.

The total amount of retail deposits attracted by five banks is RUB 70 billion; the total branch network consists of more than 240 offices and ATM network of more than 440 devices. [6]

In January 2015, B&N Bank acquired Uralprivatbank. [7] The transaction was completed in February 2015. The purpose of the acquisition for B&N Bank is to expand its retail business and regional presence. Uralprivatbank is a sustainable regional bank which has been operating in the market for over 25 years. The bank has 4 offices in Ekaterinburg.
