Despite a slowdown in the national economy, including in its banking sector, VTB Group registered strong financial results thanks to the use of an effective growth model in retail and investment banking. The Group's net profit in 2013 amounted to RUB 100.5 billion. The bank's Secondary Public Offering in May 2013 allowed us to shore up capital and continue developing our core business divisions. In April 2014, we approved a new three-year development strategy, 'Quality Growth'. During this difficult period for the financial sector, the strategy will provide the basis for VTB Group's continued successful development."

The voting results will be published within the timeframe established by law.
