Tinkov noted that Tinkoff Bank was among Top 3 banks in Russia in terms of the client base. According to the businessman, he is dreaming now of 20 million active clients and $1 billion in net profit. TCS Group's net profit amounted to 9 billion roubles in Q1 2020 ($128 million at the Bank of Russia rate as of October 3).

“We will do it faster with the deal with Yandex, without it (50/50) – we’ll do it a bit later,” Tinkov said in his personal blog.

He supplemented the publication with a photo showing the results of a survey of bank customers conducted by Deloitte&Touche CIS. According to it, retail services of Sberbank, VTB and Tinkoff Bank were used by 87.1%, 23.4% and 19.3% of respondents, respectively, during 30 days preceding the survey that involved 5038 people from over 200 cities.
