MDM Bank (Russian: МДМ Банк; 2009–2017), is a former Russian joint stock commercial bank.

Original MDM-Bank was one of Russia's largest private banks originally based in Moscow (1993–2009), then merged renamed and moved to Novosibirsk (2009–2016)[1] MDM and URSA estimated that the new MDM Bank would have capital of US$2.5 billion and total assets of US$18.7 billion, although in practice the numbers ended up being somewhat lower.[citation needed]

History[edit]

Former original MDM-Bank in Moscow, 1993-2009

The original MDM Bank was founded in Moscow in December 1993 and holds a General Banking License issued by the Central Bank of Russia (#2361 dated 13 February 2003, which will be voided as the bank migrates under URSA Bank license #323).[2]

Igor Kim, chairman and shareholder of URSA, has been the new bank's chief executive officer during the transition period; Oleg Vyugin chairs the board of the bank's holding company and the former MDM CEO Igor Kuzin is chief executive of the holding company.[1]

URSA Bank was founded in 1990 as Sibakadembank by the Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It was restructured from a privately held bank to a joint-stock bank in 1997. After a series of mergers with local Siberian banks, in 2006 Sibakadembank merged with Yekaterinburg-based Uralvneshtorgbank (established 1991) and assumed the new name, URSA Bank.[3]

In 2016 MDM merged with another Russian lender, B&N Bank. This new entity now ranked in the top 10 of all Russian banks, and the top five for private lenders.[4] In 2017 the newly merged entity required a bailout by the Russian Central Bank.
