Nomos Bank, the lender part owned by Alexander Nesis, increased net income by 35 percent last year as net fees and commissions rose, outweighing a decline in net trading income.
Net income climbed to 10 billion rubles ($345 million) from 7.4 billion rubles a year earlier, the Russian lender said Tuesday.
Net interest income almost doubled to 28 billion rubles, and return on average equity was 18.2 percent last year, Nomos said. Nonperforming loans amounted to 2 percent of lending at the end of 2011, down from 2.4 percent a year earlier, the bank said.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
