Societe Generale in Russia
Societe Generale has a long history in Russia. At the end of the 19th century, Societe Generale held a 15% stake in the banking syndicate that issued the famous Russian state bonds in France. In the early part of the 20th century, Societe Generale was highly active in the Russian empire through the Russo-Asian Bank, which was at one time the biggest bank in the empire. The Russo-Asian Bank played a strong role in developing economic relations between Asia and Europe. Not only was it involved in banking, it also provided trade financing and capital investment.
These strong ties with Russia were renewed in the 1970s, when Societe Generale opened a representative office in Moscow, and then later in the 1990s and early 2000s, when Societe Generale made an initial investment in Rosbank. Today Societe Generale is the majority shareholder of Rosbank.

Team spirit is our strengh
We employ people of various age groups, primarily young people, but there are older members of our team who have achieved a lot.
We value employees who take initiative and can generate new ideas and help their supervisor.
The qualities that helped me build my career are attention to detail and the ability to be tough and defend my point of view.
It is very difficult to be insincere when you work with people. You have to be genuinely interested in them, so that you can build a long-term business relationship. That's normal when customers work with the same manager for around 6 years.
The people I've been working with since 2006 have become my family members, with whom I spend most of my time at work.
Our international project team consists of Tunisians, Romanians, Italians, and, of course, a lot of French people.
We achieve good results due to the excellent work and the friendly atmosphere of the Rosbank team. That is reflected in our work with our customers, who also appreciate it.
I like working at Rosbank because together we can do much more.
