In 2016, Sberbank continued to consolidate its position in retail markets, while its share in the corporate segment declined. In the retail lending market, Sberbank has significantly increased its share in credit cards as well as cash loans. However, stronger competition in the mortgage lending market, including as a result of the state-supported mortgage program, led to a slight decrease of the Bank’s share in this segment. The portfolio continued a positive trajectory in the market of individual retail deposits as Sberbank and other state-owned banks strengthened their positions benefiting from flight to quality provided by more reliable financial institutions
