Notes on Regulation of Branchless Banking in Russia. CGAP, May, 2008Since November 2006, when President Putin advocated greater financial access for the Russian people in a widely publicized address, a number of government initiatives have begun to take shape indicating the strong interest among Russian policy makers and regulators in taking up this challenge. Branchless banking, or “distance banking”, as it is often called in Russian translation, is seen as a cost-efficient way of achieving the goal of improved financial access – particularly for lower income Russians living in the country’s many vast and sparsely populated areas.
