Ex.9. Read the dialogue, sum up its content and act it out:
Commercial Banks in Russia

Foreigner: As far as I know, Russia has a two-tier banking system.
Russian: Yes, our banking system consists of the Central Bank of Russia (CBR) and commercial banks, which is typical of many countries in the market economy.
F.: How do your commercial banks operate? Is the regulatory control strong enough?

R.: Banking in Russia is regulated by the Law on Banks and Banking in the Russian Federation. As to the CBR, it is constantly strengthening its regulatory and supervisory role. For instance, now banks can start operating only after they get registered and obtain a license from the CBR.

F.: Your banking legislation provides for the existence of banks and credit institutions. How do they differ?

R.: Our credit institutions are only allowed to perform cash settlement operations, collect money and documents, buy and sell foreign currency.

F.: How are your banks run?

R.: It depends on the organizational and legal form of the bank. Banks with the authorized capital made up of contributions, have the status of limited liability societies. The founders' contributions may be in the form of money, property and other tangible assets. A joint-stock bank forms its authorized fund by issuing shares. The governing body in а bank is а meeting of the founders or shareholders. Between the meetings, this function is performed bу the bank's council. They determine the bank's policy.

Day-to-day management is carried out bу the board, which is an executive body. The board is headed bу the President. The board members determine the bank's structure and functions of its departments.

F.: In the West, bankers' services cover .an enormous range of activities today. What about your banks?

R.: In principle, we offer рrасtiсаllу the same services. АП operations can bе divided into active and passive. Passive operations are bank's resources consisting of а bank's own and outside funds. I mean the authorized capital, the reserve and special funds as well аs the retained profit.

F.: But the bulk of а bank's resources are formed bу outside resources, in other words, loans obtained bу the bank and deposits.

R.: Yоu are right. Speaking about active operations, I'd like to stress that they are placement operation aimed to get а profit and guarantee а bank's liquidity. They are cash, credit and investment operations.

F.: What operations prevail in the assets structure?

R.: Lending operations. Their share is the largest.

F.: Then the loan management departments must bе most careful with applicants.

R.: They are. They study creditworthiness of applicants and their credit history most саrеfullу before they give recommendations to lending operations departments.

F.: Banks sometimes fоllоw а risky credit policy. Are your banks tempted bу quick and easy profits?

R.: They are. Moreover, sometimes they infringe normative docu­ments of the Central Bank, particularly about the capital and reserve requirements. Some banks also infringe rules for accounting and reporting and requirements for reserves for possible losses.

F.: What is the position of the Central Bank in this critical situаtion?

R.: Banks are соntгоllеd regularly for capital adequacy, asset quality and liquidity, I mean cash and "near cash" investments.

F.: Refinancing is а tested technique to regulate bank's liquidity. Уour Central Bank arranges refinancing, doesn't it?

R.: Yes, it does. Refinancing is done bу granting lombard credits, through sale and repurchase agreements (REPOs), and bу, crediting correspondent accounts of banks acting as primary dealers in the GKO market.

F.: I see that your financial sector is геаllу developing at а great расе.
