The business model in all areas;

Developing and creating best customer experience;
Improving performance;
Providing reliable and safe services;
Accelerated deployment of AI in every area of the business.

Return on equity >22% in each year of the Strategy;
Total capital adequacy ratio Н20.0 >13.3%;
Dividend disbursements of 50% of the Sber Group's net profit.

Herman Gref, CEO and Chairman of the Executive Board of Sberbank:

"The consumer model in which the customer is viewed exclusively as a source of income will become a thing of the past. The task of the new business is to help the customer be flexible and adaptive in an unstable world. We need to create tools that will meet and surpass the customers' expectations. We need to learn to treat each of our customers, every human being, as we would treat ourselves.

Herman Gref, CEO and Chairman of the Executive Board of Sberbank.

We want to become one of the first human-centric companies, one that will help people to tap their potential and survive amidst today's over-abundance of technology and information.

Artificial intelligence can become a personal assistant to every human being – an assistant in analyzing and processing huge volumes of information, setting goals, and correctly prioritizing and organizing our lives, an assistant which will help to expand people's capabilities and free them from routine activities."
