In August 1988 in USSR had begun the period when state banks of industry-specific branches were transformed into the commercial banks. During that period the first private commercial bank - Viking Bank - was established as an experiment (at the beginning the Bank's name was "Patent"). From that moment had commenced the era of formation of a new banking system in new Russia. At that time there was no law regulating banking activity and the first Charter of the bank was developed on the basis of the Cooperation Act. Viking Bank was given the General Banking License No.2 on August 26, 1988. License No.1 was given one day before to the Union Bank in Kazakhstan that went bankrupt. Consequently, the Viking Bank is the First Commercial Bank on the territory of the post-Soviet Russia.
