Experts predicted the default of 33 Russian banks
In the next 12 months, most Russian banks will be financially stable, according to the Expert RA rating agency. However, as follows from the review of the agency, 9% of existing market participants, or 33 credit institutions, may default.
The calculation base of the index includes 366 banks, it is calculated on the historical default of banks and reflects the mathematical expectation of defaults. At the same time, the agency does not disclose the list of 33 banks that may face default. Last year, there was a trend towards a “natural contraction” of the market – cases of license cancellations initiated by owners or joining larger players increased, and some of the defaults predicted by the agency may be realized not through the revocation of licenses by the Bank of RUSSIA, but as a result of voluntary withdrawal from the market.video The pressure on the financial position of market participants will be associated not only with the direct consequences of the covid-19 pandemic , the agency believes. Other negative factors include the quality of assets owned by banks and the overall decline in the profitability of the banking business. Banks' financial results worsened not so much because of loan losses, but because of a decrease in the margins of operations, experts say.
