[edit]

Career start

[edit]

As an undergraduate, Igor Kogan combined his studies with software engineering in small cooperative firms. After graduating he established a software company, distributing computers and software.[1][4]

In the late 19990s he worked as an area manager of operations for the Pervyi Gorodskoj Bank.[2][4]

Igor Kogan obtained the position of Chairman of the Investment Department at Infobank in 1996 and later this year a deputy CEO of the bank. He resigned from the company in 1998.[2]

Banking

[edit]

Nordea Bank

[edit]

In autumn 1999, Igor Kogan secured a substantial capital injection from institutional and private investors, which provided stability to Orgresbank during RF T-bills crisis. Igor Kogan shortly thereafter became deputy CEO, and two months later he became CEO.[1][5]

In 2007, Igor Kogan initiated negotiations for the sale of its controlling stake (75.1%) in Orgresbank to the biggest Scandinavian Banking Group, Nordea. The shares were acquired with the multiple of 3.9 on invested capital, whilst most of the Russian banks were traded at the multiple of 3-3.2. As a result, Igor Kogan continued as CEO of the Bank retaining the same Russian senior management team.[6][5]

In December 2008, at the peak of the international financial crisis, Nordea acquired the remaining shares in Orgresbank becoming its sole shareholder. Igor Kogan skillfully managed to close the deal with investors on pre-crisis terms and conditions.[5][6]

In 2009 Orgresbank changed its name to Nordea Bank Russia. Igor Kogan’s position changed from CEO to Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Russian subsidiary of Nordea Group. By 2014 Kogan ensured Nordea Bank’s position in Forbes Top 20 banking list of Russia.[7][8][6]

By 2015, as a result of the well-prepared anti-crisis action plan supervised by Igor Kogan, Nordea Bank had become the most stable bank in Russia by Forbes magazine rating.[5][8] In the same year the shareholder (Nordea Bank AB) started to gradually wind down its operations in Russia, in particular, its retail banking business. Despite the scaling down strategy Nordea Bank remained in Forbes Top 10 most stable banks in Russia until 2020. Igor Kogan left Nordea Bank in 2019.[9][10][11][5]

In 2020 the Group took the final decision to leave the Russian market. The Central Bank of Russia withdrew Nordea Bank Russia’s banking license on 16 April 2021.[11][12]

Credit histories bureaus

[edit]

Igor Kogan initiated a Credit Histories Bureaus Institution legislative base development that created and managed its activities in Russia. He drafted a bill as a committee associate of the Ministry for Trade and Economic Development and acted as a consultant until its submission to the State Duma. As a result, the Federal Law No.2018-FZ “On credit histories” dd 30/12/2004 was passed with Igor Kogan’s comments, additions and corrections.

Kogan developed mechanisms of the collection, storage and use of credit histories. He also introduced the principles of credit histories bureaus’ functioning and their interaction with the sources of credit history formation, borrowers, government and local authorities, as well as the Central Bank of Russia.{Cite web|lang=ru|url=https://newizv.ru/news/economy/06-07-2006/po-sledam-zaemschikov-v-rossii-startovala-rabota-byuro-kreditnyh-istoriy%7Ctitle=По следам заемщиков: в России стартовала работа бюро кредитных историй|website=newizv.ru|access-date=2022-11-07}}

Now credit histories bureaus provide information on a borrower’s credit history and make up an inalienable part of the modern financial market. Banks consider customers’ credit histories to make decisions on granting or restructuring loans.[2][13]. As of 2022, ten out of fourteen largest Russian retail banks issue loans based on data from the Credit histories bureaus (CHB). This data shows the current level of repayments on loans.[14]
