Interview with Credit Bank of Moscow CEO

 Roman Avdeed

Roman Avdeev: Moscow’s most unlikely billionaire

Philosopher, philanthropist and father of 23 – Roman Avdeev is a far cry from the stereotype of Russian oligarch.

And his status as one of Russia’s most independent billionaires gives him a unique insight into the country’s current pariah status.



Indian banking


Modi makeover ignites India’s banking leaders

In exclusive interviews, leaders of Indian finance reveal how banks, nursing wounds from the recent credit boom, should be set free from the shackles of state control, as reformists raise hopes of a new dawn for Indian capitalism. A jolt, not a tweak, to the financial system is desperately needed.



Malaysia banking mergers


CIMB: Malaysia merger signals Apac consolidation

A three-way banking merger is the biggest yet in Malaysia, part of a regional trend to boost domestic firms to compete locally and abroad. It would also give the country a big contender in Islamic finance.


 

Maybank bloodied but unbowed
