RBC Information Systems has announced the conclusion of an agreement to acquire Burger Capital Bank.

Burg Capital Bank was registered in Moscow in August 1994 and holds licenses for banking operations in rubles and foreign currencies with funds of individuals and legal entities, as well as licenses for brokerage and dealer activities. Prior to the sale of RBC, the bank was owned by Swiss owners.
The equity capital of Burgh Capital Bank as of October 1, 2007 was 220 million rubles. At the meeting of the extraordinary shareholders meeting of the bank, which took place on November 20, 2007, the decision to rename Burger Capital Bank to RBC Bank was approved, and a new supervisory board was elected, most of which was received by RBC representatives. Details of the transaction can not be disclosed until its approval by regulatory authorities.
“The development of e-commerce is hampered by the lack of a widely used payment system on the Internet. The number of companies that are actively involved in e-commerce and the amount of money flowing through them is insignificant compared to other countries. A very small group of people in Russia pays for goods and services on the Internet using pre-paid cards. Even fewer people use plastic cards on the Internet for security reasons. Therefore, unlike in the West, large purchases in Russia are not made through Internet payments, i.e. people choose products via the Internet, but they usually pay in cash, ”said German Kaplun, chairman of the board of directors of RBC.
“We believe that this market has great growth potential. Using the bank's infrastructure, we expect to bring to the market a reliable, easy-to-use and convenient payment system, which will fundamentally change the current situation. Due to the high loyalty of its multi-million audience, RBC expects to make this system truly massive, ”added German Kaplun.
