“Our large banks are still afraid to go to Crimea so as not to fall under sanctions. Crimean banks enjoy the support of the Central Bank. We will push them to lend more actively. We’ll bet a bottle of champagne that lending will double next year,” Aksakov said.
According to experts, currently the estimated need of Crimean enterprises for credit funds for the next two years is more than 60 billion rubles, but there is no understanding whether banks can provide such volumes of lending.
