Russia’s Sberbank has hired Oksana Smirnova-Krell from MTS Bank, a lender co-controlled by the country’s number-one mobile phone operator MTS, to oversee information technology aspects of banking at Russia’s biggest lender.
Smirnova-Krell was deputy CEO and chief technology officer at MTS Bank, which is controlled by the MTS mobile operator and Russian conglomerate AFK Sistema.
Before joining MTS Bank in 2016, she had held senior IT management jobs at various companies, including Nordic-Baltic banking group Swedbank and Russia’s Svyaznoy Bank and Bank of Moscow, which was bought out by Russia’s second-largest bank VTB in 2011.
Smirnova-Krell’s job title at Sberbank is “vice-president for the technological development of banking products”, the bank said in a statement.
