Center-invest Bank Joins Top 5 Largest SME Lenders

04.05.2026

Center-invest Bank ranked 4th in the Expert RA ranking table for the total volume of SME loans issued in 2025.

In 2025, Center-invest Bank issued 121 billion roubles in loan funds for client business development, with 78% of these funds received by companies in the SME segment.

Center-invest Bank effectively manages risks and maintains a conservative approach to lending. A high-quality loan portfolio allows the bank to maintain low interest rates without factoring in excessive risks, while the volume of overdue debt within the SME portfolio has steadily declined over the past three years. At year-end 2025, Center-invest Bank’s overdue loan debt stood at less than 1%.

This aligns with the principles of sustainable, customer-centric banking, focusing on developing long-term, trusting relationships with clients rather than generating short-term profits.
