Sberbank exacerbates the quality of the loan portfolio: the number of appeals for repairing the debt is growing, while both individual and legal creatures experience difficulties in payments.
The leader of the Sberbank of the Russian Federation German Gref said Russian economic problems caused by the growth of military costs, inflation and increasing basic rates were not quickly resolved. The Moscow Times reported this Monday, June 30.
“Next year, 2026, too, it doesn’t seem to be simple,” he said on Monday at the annual meetings of bank shareholders.
According to him, the geopolitical factors, the GDP dynamics and the rates of the central bank of the Russian Federation will affect the situation.
The head of Sberbank also acknowledged the destruction of bank loan portfolio quality. According to him, the number of appeals for repairing debts from both business and individuals is growing.
“I hope, as always, we will find general plans for passing these difficult times,” he said.
According to Bloomberg, Russia’s bankers in informal conversations have warned the threat of a banking crisis within 12 months of increasing loan debt.
Agency interlocutors estimate the amount of potential problems with trillion rubles. In statistics of the central bank of the Russian Federation, this crisis has not yet been shown: the problem with problem loan is about 4% of the business and little more than 5% for individuals. However, many lenders only pay payments, so problems do not fall into reporting.
Even the analysts of the Center for Macroeconomic Analysis and short -TERM forecasting, near the Russian Federation government, are warned that in the risk zone there are businesses worth 17% of the total economy.
Among the most vulnerable industries, analysts called: fish and mining industries, clothing and leather products, vehicle and trade industries, oil refining, engineering construction, water transport and postal communication.
In addition to bank debts, Russian non -payments between companies have also been recorded in the Russian Federation. From October of last year to March 2025, their volume rose 11.6%, while in the manufacturing industry – to about 40%. These are the record indicators since the time of pandemia.
Previously, Gref said the Russian economy was in “perfect storm” conditions that have developed many problems.
Keep in mind that the state of Duma of the Russian Federation approved in the first reading of the Federal Budget Government Reading for 2025. They provide an increase of more than three times budget deficiency at last year’s level.
