Alexey Chichkanov

Alexey Chichkanov serves as the First Vice President of Gazprombank, where he plays a crucial role in assessing the financial implications of infrastructure projects in Russia. Recently, he presented estimates suggesting that economic conditions could lead to a potential increase in costs for state-private partnership projects by approximately 136 billion rubles due to inflation and rising financing costs. Chichkanov emphasized the importance of continuing project preparations despite current economic challenges, arguing that delays could result in even higher costs in the long run.
