Given the current state of affairs in the Russian economy the most risky is the external sector of the economy engaged in foreign trade, which are intersecting with the countries embargoed for a number of products. If you take the best of times, the real and the private sector are the most responsive to market conditions, in particular, is the construction, transportation, catering, retail, manufacturing of raw materials and finished products. When underwriting of such customers we apply an individual approach of analysis.

The most risky is lending of the service industries: transportation, beauty salons, laundries, car washes and more. As a rule, these activities are characterized by a low degree of financial independence and stability, which leads to a significant deterioration of the financial situation of clients upon minor structural or macroeconomic fluctuations.
