OREANDA-NEWS. December 10, 2015.  The provisional administration of BANK GOROD (JSC) appointed by Bank of Russia Order No. OD-3183, dated 16 November 2015, due to the revocation of its banking licence, encountered an obstruction of its activity starting the first day of performing its functions.

Management of BANK GOROD (JSC) failed to provide the provisional administration with the loan agreements available in the bank’s books worth over 11 billion rubles. Besides, one day prior to the revocation of the banking licence some unidentified persons got unauthorised access to electronic media (server) and destroyed the electronic database of assets and liabilities of this credit institution, including its liabilities to households. This may be indicative of an attempt to conceal documentary evidence of moving out assets from the bank.

The Bank of Russia submitted the information on the financial operations performed by the former management and owners of BANK GOROD (JSC) which bear the evidence of the criminal offence to the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation, Russian Investigative Committee and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation for consideration and procedural decision making.
