In 2021 "Sber" plans to open at least 2 - 3 branches of the new format in each region. The pilot project is being launched so far in regional regions of the country. This was announced by the first deputy chairman of the bank Alexander Vedyakhin. The new format implies children's corners and cafes. It will be possible to conduct operations without a passport using a biometric system. Also "Sber" will place in its branches post offices to receive parcels and new ATMs to withdraw cash using biometrics, call a cab and order food.
