Book excerpt: Recommends a strategy for reform of the Russian banking sector as part of an overall strategy to improve resource allocation in the economy. This study offers a three-to five-year strategy for making the banking sector in Russia more efficient in mobilizing financial savings, allocating resources, and processing payments. The strategy has three policy components: * Phasing out the Central Bank's direct credit programs þ currently the main instrument of monetary policy þ and replacing them with a discount window and limited budgetary subsidies for certain enterprises in key areas * Improving the commercial banking system through the International Standards Bank program, which will gradually phase in higher standards and regulations and encourage banks to adopt them voluntarily * Restructuring the large specialized banks (Rosselkhozbank, Sberbank, and Promstroibank), that now provide credit and other banking services to agriculture, households and small enterprises, and large state-owned enterprises. The study also recommends several high-priority improvements to Russia's financial infrastructure, including improvement of the legal framework, adoption of accounting and auditing standards, and overhaul of the payments system.

Book excerpt: This evaluation assesses the development effectiveness of the World Bank's lending and non-lending assistance to the Russian Federation since 1991, a 10-year period of tumultuous political, economic, and social change. This report concludes that an assistance strategy, concentrating on analytical and advisory services with limited financial support for Russia, would have been more appropriate than one involving large volumes of adjustment lending.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: This dissertation analyses the structural changes in the Russian banking system and gives insights into the current market situation. Starting with a review of theoretical aspects of banking in Western economies and the rationale for the existence of banks, the deficiencies of the former socialist banking system are exposed. A large section is dedicated to the special role of the banking system during the process of transition and to an evaluation of how far Russian banks rise to the challenges of these tasks. The historical process of reforming the central and commercial banking system is described, laying emphasis on the legislative changes and the means of supervision. The banking system in Russia has been dominated by rapid growth in the last three years due to high profit expectations. However, many banks granted credits to dubious industrial companies and now face a large amount of uncollectable assets in their credit portfolios. The analysis shows that with rising positive real interest rates and growing competition in the banking market, a large number of small and mediumsized banks will either have to admit bankruptcy or be acquired by expanding banks. The emerging interbank, bond and equity markets are illustrated with regard to the influence of banks. The deficiencies in settlement processes, liquidity, trading rules, and private and commercial law are examined. The next urgently required steps in the reform process are listed. The future progress of the Russian banking system however, is not only dependent on legal and structural changes in related financial and capital markets, but based on the critical assumption of peaceful, politically stable and socially balanced developments in Russia.

The Russian savings bank sector went through a period of shakeout after the August 1995 interbank crisis. Large banks were able to expand their market shares in the deposits market as a result of scale advantages and advertising. Entrants unsuccessfully sought to gain market share by having high deposit rates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fixing Russia's Banks documents how Russia's financial system is built on what Michael S. Bernstam and Alvin Rabushka call ersatz banks. These inferior imitation banks have served largely as tools of the government to redistribute public funds to favored firms. The highly vaunted achievements of privatization, removal of price controls, and foreign trade liberalization have failed to produce growth because of a lack of private financing. National income has declined nearly 40 percent since 1992, with no recovery in sight.

Book excerpt: Value-added in Russian banks grew 43 percent while GDP declined 32 percent in the early years of the transition. This paper offers explanations for the unusual success of the Russian banking sector and the determinants of individual bank performance. The evidence comes from balance sheet data for 563 Moscow banks and 160 regional banks on January 1, 1995 and January 1, 1996. Important factors include the Central Bank policy of channeling low-interest directed credits to state enterprises through banks, the ability of banks to obtain large-scale interest-free deposits, and the resulting high interest rate spreads in an environment of high inflation, and the extent to which banks were formerly part of the Soviet system.
