We have achieved a significant growth in all key financials and expanded the Bank’s geography and the range of its products and services. In 2006, the Group’s assets grew 75% to exceed USD 31.6 billion, while customer accounts increased 1.6 times. The Bank’s corporate customer base reached 40 thousand. Our corporate loan portfolio grew 44% and our retail loan portfolio 2.7 times. The Group reported a net profit of USD 1.56 billion, or 2.8 times year on year. Gazprombank has reaffirmed its position as one of the top three Russian banks and improved its international standing. A high level of trust is reflected in investment grade credit ratings assigned to the Bank by the leading rating agencies Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s. The Bank’s sustainable growth is supported by a solid customer base that is centered around major government-owned and private companies. ОАО “Gazprom” has tradi- tionally been our top-priority client, and the Bank considers the support of Gazprom’s operations and participation in its large-scale investment projects to be a very impor- tant and prestigious mission. We see it as our contribution to strengthening the ener- gy basis of the Russian economy and a vital mission for ensuring global energy secu- rity. In January 2007, Gazprombank and Gazprom signed a cooperation agreement for the period through 2015 providing for further development of our close partner- ship. The Bank’s solid and well-balanced funding base guarantees continued expansion of products and services offered to our corporate and retail clients. Gazprombank active- ly develops investment banking. Today the Bank is the leading underwriter and an organizer of domestic market bond issues. Its Depositary Center is the largest in Rus- sia in terms of customer assets. We have also strengthened our positions in the con- sumer and mortgage lending markets and the market of remote banking services. Furthermore, we are actively developing our asset management business. In 2006, Gazprombank completed an additional share issue, which became another important landmark for the Bank. The new issue boosted the Bank’s share capital by 28%, while the Group’s equity more than doubled to USD 6.65 billion. In addition to Gazprom the Bank acquired another major shareholder – the leading Russian Non-State Pension Fund “GAZFOND”. A new inflow of cash generated by an additional stock placement will be invested in the regional network development pro- gram, the retail and investment banking businesses and the introduction of new prod- ucts for corporate customers from various sectors of the economy. |4| ADDRESS BY THE CHAIRMAN OF THE MANAGEMENT BOARD Gazprombank of theManagementBoar Chairman benefit ofthecountry. tothemutualsatisfactionofallparticipantsand ourrelationship and develop Please, beassur I totheirpractices. social responsibility ofcorporate inthearea financial institutionsinadaptinginternationalstandards toassistRussian ready all aspectsofthisinfluenceinourdailyoperationsandare toconsider strive andotherimportantaspectsofsociallife.We protection, ronmental andhealth,envi- impactonemployment,publicwelfare andhasadirect development fullyunderstandthatbusinessitselfisanimportantfactorofsocial we Moreover, e s t enterprisepursuingitsownbusinesspurposes.Yet, isacommercial Gazprombank G he Bank recognizes its commitment to fulfilling social responsibilities focusingon itscommitmentto fulfillingsocialresponsibilities he Bankrecognizes ponsorship and charity and providing support to orphanages and boarding schools, supporttoorphanagesandboarding ponsorship andcharityproviding ducational, research and cultural institutions, the church andsportsorganizations. andculturalinstitutions,thechurch ducational, research am grateful to our shareholders, clients andbusinesspartnersforcooperation. am gratefultoourshareholders, AZPROMBANK GROUP | Annual report |2006 AZPROMBANK GROUP|Annualreport ed, that in the future theBankwilldo itsbesttofurtherstrengthen ed, thatinthefuture d Andrey I.Akimov Andrey |5| GAZPROMBANK GROUP | Annual report | 2006 A PORTRAIT OF GAZPROMBANK GROUP Joint-Stock Bank of the Gas Industry “Gazprombank” (Closed Joint-Stock Company) is one of the largest full-service financial institutions in Russia providing a broad range of banking, financial, and investment products to corporate and individual cus- tomers, credit institutions and institutional and private investors.

  • Russia's Policy on Strengthening the Navy and the Defense Industry*
    Russia’s Policy on Strengthening the Navy and the Defense Industry* Yoshiaki Sakaguchi** Abstract The Russian government has begun rebuilding the Russian Navy as a part of the military reforms since October 2008. The Russian leadership has set out a clear policy on strengthening the Navy. Furthermore, the “State Weapons Program for 2011-2020,” unveiled at the end of 2010, presents that 23.4% of the total budget will be allocated to the procurement and development of vessels. This program and the budgetary measures for its realization have contributed to the gradual progress in the construction of new naval vessels since 2011. Nevertheless, the problems confronting the Russian defense industry remain unresolved, putting into question the ability of the defense industry to meet the high procurement targets identified in the State Weapons Program. Introduction A large-scale military reform has been under way in Russia since October 2008, with the focus of reform now shifting to modernization of obsolete armament following the near-completion of organizational and structural reform. The replacement and modernization of armament have been undertaken on the basis of the “State Weapons Program for 2011-2020” (hereinafter referred to as the “current State Weapons Program”), formulated in late 2010. The reform to equip the armed forces with a high degree of mobility and professionalism as well as the latest equipment is gradually beginning to take shape. Under these circumstances, the Navy is emerging out of the battered state that ensued after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The building of new naval vessels that had been stagnant for some time and their introduction into the Navy can be seen again.

To compensate for this apparent injustice, Kommersant Vlast analytical weekly has compiled The Entire Russian Fleet directory. It is especially topical since even Russia’s Commander-in-Chief compared himself to a slave on the galleys a week ago. The directory lists all 238 battle ships and submarines of Russia’s Naval Fleet, with their board numbers, year of entering service, name and rank of their commanders. It also contains the data telling to which unit a ship or a submarine belongs. For first-class ships, there are schemes and tactic-technical characteristics. So detailed data on all Russian Navy vessels, from missile cruisers to base type trawlers, is for the first time compiled in one directory, making it unique in the range and amount of information it covers. The Entire Russian Fleet carries on the series of publications devoted to Russia’s armed forces. Vlast has already published similar directories about the Russian Army (#17-18 in 2002, #18 in 2003, and #7 in 2005) and Russia’s military bases (#19 in 2007).

  • Admiral Gorshkov Frigate Reveals Serious Shortcomings in Russia’S Naval Modernization Program
    March 2016 Admiral Gorshkov Frigate Reveals Serious Shortcomings in Russia’s Naval Modernization Program Paul Schwartz Since 2008, as part of its ongoing military reform, Moscow has embarked on a large-scale program of naval expansion intended to recapitalize its ailing shipbuilding industry and rebuild and modernize its fleet. Rebuilding the fleet has received especially high priority in Russia’s 2011–2020 State-Armament Program, with the navy set to receive nearly 5 trillion rubles (about US$70 billion), or fully one-quarter of the total amount to be spent on military modernization of Russia’s entire armed forces through 2020.1 Russia’s fleet development plans were further elaborated in its “Action Plan 2013–2020,” an overall modernization road map released by the Ministry of Defense in 2013. According to this plan, the percentage of modern equipment in Russia’s navy was set to increase from a level of approximately 40 percent in 2013 to over 70 percent by 2020.2 Despite substantial efforts to make good on its naval modernization plans, including significant state spending, what has been delivered thus far to the Russian Navy has fallen well short of expectations. While official Russian rhetoric routinely proclaims that the fleet is undergoing a major renaissance, in reality Russia’s shipbuilding programs have been severely hampered by enduring problems, including budget shortfalls, underinvestment in naval R&D, poor design, obsolescence in its shipbuilding industry, system- integration challenges, reduced access to foreign technology, and widespread corruption, among other problems, all of which have led to long-standing delays in several naval programs and outright cancellation of others.3 The Admiral Gorshkov–Class Frigate A particularly important case in point is the seemingly endless project to build a new blue-water frigate.

The exact geographical coordinates of the city centre are 59°57' North Latitude 30°19' East Longitude. St. Petersburg, located in the node of several major sea, river and land transportation routes, is the European gate of Russia and its strategic centre closest to the border with the European Union. Inland waters constitute about 10% of the city territory. The total area (with administrative subjects) covers 1439 km². The population amounts to 5 225.7 people (as of January 1, 2016 by the data from the federal statistical agency “Petrostat”). St. Petersburg is the second (after Moscow) largest city of the Russian Federation and the third (after Moscow and London) largest city in Europe.

  • Russian Defense Industry and Arms Trade: Facts and Figures Prepared by the Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies
    Russian defense industry and arms trade: facts and figures prepared by the Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies Contents 1. Russian arms exports 2. Russian defense budget and procurement 3. Key current contracts for Russian arms exports 4. Ranking of the top Russian defense companies More detailed information can be found in the Eksport Vooruzheniy or Moscow Defense Brief journals published by CAST. For subscription, please visit http://cast.ru/eng/. 1. Russian arms exports The key indicators used to quantify Russian arms exports include: • value of deliveries made over the reported year (i.e. the worth of the arms and military equipment already delivered); • revenue (money received under arms contracts); • accumulated value of arms contracts signed during the year; and • accumulated portfolio of contracts by the year's end. The headline figure for arms exports is usually the value of deliveries made. But in any event, a distinction must be made between the four key indicators listed above, as they are sometimes confused by journalists, who unwittingly misinterpret the source figures and draw the wrong conclusions. Starting from 2007, Rosoboronexport, a state-owned company, has been the only Russian entity that holds the full license to export arms and military equipment. Previously, similar licenses were also held by RSK MiG aircraft corporation (Moscow), KBP instrument design bureau (Tula), KBM machine-building design bureau (Kolomna, Moscow region) and NPOmash research and production company (Reutov, Moscow region). Now defense companies (only 22 of them) can export only spare parts and components for weapons systems exported via Rosoboronexport. It is therefore useful to make a distinction between: • total Russian arms exports; • exports via Rosoboronexport (ROE); and • exports of independent spare parts suppliers.
