T-Bank is one of the three largest banks in Russia, based on the number of its active clients. It holds a leading position in the field of financial technologies, and the Central Bank of Russia has included Tinkoff Bank on the list of systemically-important credit institutions. T-Bank was known as Tinkoff Bank until 5 June 2024. T-Bank operates in the Russian financial services sector, and, more specifically, the banking sector. In 2023, the financial services sector was the seventh-largest sector of the Russian economy by share of GDP, accounting for 5,2 % of the GDP of the Russian Federation. This was an increase from 4,8 % in 2022. Furthermore, the banking sector constitutes a substantial part of the Russian financial sector, as it accounts for around 87 % of the total assets in the financial sector. The banking sector performed well in 2023, with significant increases in total assets, corporate loans and retail loans, and a net profit of 3,3 trillion roubles in the first six months alone. Moreover, the banking sector supports other sectors of the economy, which in turn generate revenues for the Government of the Russian Federation. T-Bank is therefore involved in economic sectors providing a substantial source of revenue to the Government of the Russian Federation, which is responsible for the annexation of Crimea and the destabilisation of Ukraine.
