According to Forbes magazine, Moscow is home to more dollar billionaires and High Net Worth Individuals than anywhere else. For many years wealthy Russians avoided local banks, preferring to place their money overseas in Cyprus, Switzerland and Luxembourg, but an attractive tax regime, stable economy and strengthened banking system are combining to lure funds back onshore. Estimates suggest the nascent Russian and CIS private banking market has more than $15bn (€9.4bn) in assets, with the potential to grow to more than $400bn.
Private banking is one of the most attractive sectors of Russia’s, Baltic’s and CIS banking industry today.
With the growth of the Russian and CIS economies, competition will intensify between Russian and foreign banks for the right to manage millionaires’ capital. Players will compete for assets of regional millionaires who demand first-class services. Furthermore, analysts believe that changes can be expected not only in the regional character of the market, but also in the mix of market players and the dynamics of the demand for various products and services traditionally offered by the private sector.
Market immaturity and strong growth prospects are drawing global private bankers to Russia, Baltic and CIS and if you want to be on the crest of the wave, You definitely have to be at our Private Banking Conference in Moscow.

* The future of global private banking – route to success?
