“It is no exaggeration to say that the entire history of the country’s economic development over the past half century is connected with Sberbank. On 12 November 1841, Emperor Nikolay I by his decree ordered to set up savings bank affiliated with Moscow and St. Petersburg treasuries. It was the year that marked the establishment of the oldest bank. In 1849 savings bank began working in Penza and then in other provinces of the Volga region,” the press service of the lending and financial institution told news agency “PenzaNews.”

The head of the Penza branch of Sberbank Mikhail Kisel remarked that there have been noticeable changes for the better in recent years.

“Our primary concern is to be the most convenient and comfortable bank for the clients. The key task is to improve the quality of service; the indicator of success is the customers’ satisfaction with the quality of services rendered. Sberbank practically proves to be ready for the dialogue with any client and it is a reliable partner, relations with which are credible and mutually beneficial,” he said.

Mikhail Kisel added that all the achievements of Sberbank are inextricably connected with the efforts of the talented and responsible people, striving for new wins.

“I express my sincere thanks to all the employees of the Penza branch of Sberbank for their honest and conscientious work, for their loyalty to professional duties, for the great and hard work, directed to further strengthening and enhancing the prestige of the bank in the region. Be well, be always full of energy and a desire to do more. I wish you and your families well-being and prosperity!” Mikhail Kisel concluded.
