Corporate Profile

Since the very dawn of the railroad era, Russia has had a broader railway gauge compared to the West European standard. Which one is better is a moot point. The key thing is they differ. For trains to travel east to west and back, their wheel axles have to be swapped at the border.
Business is just like that, too. Entrenched traditions and sometimes prejudice, coupled with differences in mental attitudes and work environment may impede the development of a constructive and productive dialogue between the East and the West. How can we link the rail track of business?
Only by reducing diverging standards and issues to a common solution with due regard to the interests of all parties involved, based on trust and mutual benefit. That has been the mission of NOMOS-BANK, for over 15 years now.

NOMOS-BANK is one of the leading universal private banks in Russia. NOMOS is a strong player in securities, corporate lending and precious metals markets.

During the last several years NOMOS successfully kept its place among the top ten largest privately owned Russian financial institutions according to asset size.

According to the official 1H 2008 IFRS report the total assets of the Bank have increased by 17.2% up to RUR 233.2 billion (circa US$ 9.9 billion) comparing to YE 2007, and the profit for 1H 2008 has grown by 96% up to RUR 2.8 billion (circa US$ 119 million) comparing to 1H 2007.

In December 2007, NOMOS placed a new issue of shares for the amount of RUR 4.87 billion. After completion of the issue the total equity of the bank equaled close to USD 980 million at end—2007.
