it’s a pity that he earns his money not very honestly in my opinion. You will find few such terrible conditions that his financial group offers. I do not think that such conditions are competitive abroad, it only works in Russia, where there is complete financial and legal nihilism with the connivance of the government and the Central Bank. And it is not in vain that the respected Mr. Tinkoff does not have a representative office of his financial structure in Russia.
