Ownership

[edit]

At the end of 2008 after the additional issue of shares, AvtoVAZ OJSC joined the bank's shareholders, which in 2011 sold its 20 percent stake to Rostechnologii Group of Companies (formerly Rostec). At the end of May 2014, Rostec acquired 23.63% of the bank's shares. In April 2018, he increased his stake to 74.23%, and on July 26 of the same year, he signed agreements to buy out shares from all remaining shareholders. Thus the state corporation has collected 100% of Novikombank.[3]

Since March 14, 2016 the Chairman of the Board of Novikombank has been Elena Georgieva, who previously headed the Rostec Treasury since 2013.[4]
