The other day, bankster Alexey Ananyev, the former owner of Promsvyazbank, got into an awkward situation. His organs are dragged to the Basmanny Court and put on the international wanted list, but bankster Bazhanov, a fraudster who withdrew billions from the International Bank of St. Petersburg, is not put on the wanted list. For what reason? For the same reason that the issue of bankruptcy of the IBSP, beloved by the St. Petersburg elite, is being postponed.

Perhaps it's the number of billions-282 billion rubles against 16, but after all, it’s the bank of St. Petersburg, not Moscow, and for St. Petersburg, 16 billion is more than a trillion for Moscow, and perhaps it's the inexplicable "charisma" of Bazhanov, which inclines the judicial system and the prosecutor's office in his direction.

The order of Bank of Russia of October 31, 2018 N OD-2851 at the International Bank of St. Petersburg (joint-Stock company) since October 31, 2018 the license for banking operations is withdrawn and licenses for implementation of professional activity in the securities market are cancelled.

Against the background of the news that more than 150 banks in Russia are on the verge of bankruptcy, and the Central Bank is cleaning the banking sector like a potato patch, the idea came into my sick head to make the top 5 greatest (or almost) nayebs in the history of the banking industry of our vast!

Over the past 18 years, the number of banks has decreased from 1,330 to 484 (almost 3 times). And in 2018, the Deposit Insurance Agency compiled a report, according to which more than 80 claims were sent to the courts to bring to justice the controllers of failed banks to the tune of 786.7 billion rubles, 10 million dollars and 5 million euros. In 2017, there were significantly fewer such applications — 58 for 216 billion rubles.

So, citizens, be vigilant and do not keep your money in savings banks!

PETERSBURG, June 25. /TASS/. The provisional administration of the International Bank of St. Petersburg (IBSP), introduced after the revocation of its license by the Bank of Russia, demanded in court to recover from the members of the board of directors of the credit institution more than 84.1 million rubles, which they previously received as bonuses, follows from the ruling on the acceptance of the claim by the Arbitration Court of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region.

As noted in the document published on Tuesday, in the statement of claim, the administration demands to invalidate the orders of the chairman of the Board of IBSP from January to October 2018, according to which members of the board of directors of the bank Maxim Anishchenkov, Sergey and Tatyana Bazhanov, as well as Elena Skvortsova received bonuses totaling 84.1 million rubles and to recover this money from them in favor of the bank.

The ruling notes that the largest award for this period was received by the former senator and the main shareholder of IBSP Sergey Bazhanov - he was paid 36.1 million rubles. Bazhanova and Skvortsova were asked to return almost 12.2 million rubles, and Anishchenkov - 23.6 million rubles. The court accepted the statement of claim and will consider it at a meeting on July 2. "To appoint consideration of the application in the court session of the commercial court of the first instance for July 2, 2019," the court said in its ruling.

Last year, the Central Bank revoked the IBSP's license to operate, introduced a temporary administration of the bank, and then filed a lawsuit demanding that it be declared bankrupt. After that, as part of the bankruptcy case, the administration demanded to cancel the bank's transactions under loan agreements with a private company in the amount of 626.5 million rubles. In May of this year, the arbitration court of St. Petersburg refused to recognize these transactions as invalid to the provisional administration.

The Moscow Arbitration Court is also considering IBSP's counterclaims against the Bank of Russia, which demanded to cancel the regulator's decisions on the introduction of the temporary administration and revocation of the license. The next meeting on this issue will be held on July 9.

According to the Central Bank, in terms of assets as of October 1, 2018, the credit institution ranked 116th in the banking system of the Russian Federation. The total amount of insurance payments to IBSP depositors will amount to 16.5 billion rubles, a representative of the Deposit Insurance Agency (DIA) previously told TASS.

A few years ago, IBSP, the only one out of all the St. Petersburg banks, managed to take advantage of the recapitalization program of regional banks, having received federal loan bonds for 803 million rubles from the DIA in 2015. IBSP was subject to the terms of the DIA for the bank's capital requirements (at least 5 billion rubles) and at the request of the DIA, it undertook to capitalize the bank for another 50% of the loan received (by 401 million rubles) within 3 years from its own funds.

IBSP does not disclose financial statements on the issue of securities. But, as Sergey Bazhanov himself reported in January 2016, the bank's recapitalization schedule is quite comfortable for him. He bought an additional issue of shares of IBSP for 120 million rubles as part of the fulfillment of obligations to the DIA. Later it became known that the next additional issue was also bought out by Bazhanov in December 2017.

In total, the capital of IBSP has seven subordinated loans totaling 3.3 billion rubles. In addition to the subordinated loan from the DIA, the bank's capital includes loans for 2.5 billion rubles from Hervet Investments Ltd (Republic of Cyprus) maturing until 2025 and 20 million rubles from the Central Bank of MT Rubin. Such data is contained in the bank's own risk assessment materials for the first half of 2018.
