Sberbank was instructed to analyze the state of affairs in the Russian aviation industry and together with the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) to present a new management and financing model, according to the "BUSINESS Online" publication.
According to the source, this decision was made based on the results of a strategic session on the development of the aviation industry under the leadership of Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.
Sources of the publication noted that the involvement of Sber is related not to detachment from the aviation industry, but to a project approach. The financial organization has a strong team, and what to evaluate is not fundamental. Business, in this case, the aviation industry, is assessed according to a number of criteria, including the competence of management.
The editor-in-chief of the Avia.ru industry portal, Roman Gusarov, negatively perceived the information about the involvement of Sber in the audit of the aviation industry. In his opinion, a conflict of interest is possible in this situation.
Bankers are not interested in financing the aviation industry: these are very long money, and the result is not obvious. Loans and mortgages are much more profitable — money that quickly returns and with very high interest rates. I'm afraid the result of the audit will be this: let's cut everything — this is not needed, that will slow down development.
"BUSINESS Online" sent requests to the government of the Russian Federation, UAC, "Rostec", but did not receive a response. Sber did not deny the fact of the audit, only stating that they would refrain from comments.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Rostec is ready to start deliveries of MC-21, SJ-100 and Il-114-300 abroad.
