Russian "Sberbank" and "VTB" do not rule out the possibility of investing in the creation of a regional air carrier, but they also hope to receive state support.

Investments can be at least $ 1 billion, but the project should be implemented as a result of cooperation between the state and the private sector, VTB CEO Andrey Kostin said. Other details are not reported.

RF Minister of Transport Evgeny Ditrikh supports the initiative, but waits for when the details of the project will be presented.

Why do banks want to provide funds in non-profit project? Creating an air carrier, that will use leasing “subsidiary’s” services, is a good opportunity to force the money to work. Only there must be a demand.
