MDM Bank (Russian: МДМ Банк), is a former Russian commercial bank that operated from 1993 until it was merged in 2017 with B&N Bank.
MDM-Bank was one of Russia's largest private banks originally based in Moscow. In 2009 it merged with URSA, was renamed and moved to the city of Novosibirsk.[1] MDM and URSA estimated that the new MDM Bank would have capital of US$2.5 billion and total assets of US$18.7 billion, although in practice the numbers ended up being somewhat lower.[citation needed]
History
[edit]
The original MDM Bank was founded in Moscow in December 1993 and held a General Banking License issued by the Central Bank of Russia (#2361 dated 13 February 2003, which was voided as the bank migrates under URSA Bank license #323).[2]
Igor Kim, chairman and shareholder of URSA, became the new bank's chief executive officer during the transition period; Oleg Vyugin chaired the board of the bank's holding company and the former MDM CEO Igor Kuzin became chief executive of the holding company.[1]
URSA Bank was founded in 1990 as Sibakadembank by the Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It was restructured from a privately held bank to a joint-stock bank in 1997. After a series of mergers with local Siberian banks, in 2006 Sibakadembank merged with Yekaterinburg-based Uralvneshtorgbank (established 1991) and assumed the new name, URSA Bank.[3]
In 2016 MDM merged with another Russian lender, B&N Bank. This new entity now ranked in the top 10 of all Russian banks, and the top five for private lenders.[4] In 2017 the newly merged entity required a bailout by the Russian Central Bank.
