Deal on the purchase of SmartDeal service by Cian will be completed in the fall, SmartDeal CEO and head of Cian's E2E division Alexei Makarov said. Cian has been trying to acquire the service since 2021, but the company has been unable to obtain regulatory approvals. Now the deal is awaiting approval from the Ministry of Finance. Cian has western money in its capital, and such deals are approved through special government commissions, which leads to delays in the process of buying the service.
