We strive to use the most advanced resource- efficient technologies and we see programmes aimed at improving energy efficiency as one of our priorities. We operate considerable office infrastructure, a fact that makes us one of Russia's largest developers. In all of our development work, be it constructing new facilities or reformatting our existing outlets, we employ the latest and most advanced methods to minimise any environmental impact. We recognise that reducing environmental impact is not only impor- tant for the environment itself, but that it also helps reduce costs, making our business more competitive. We understand the impor- tance of monitoring and analysing our environmental impact, which is why we pay particular attention to our industrial environmental monitoring system. >> One of our most significant achievements in 2011 was that we were able to bid farewell to a huge legacy of unfinished construction projects that had been delayed by reasons out of our control Sberbank has always been involved in several major, long-term con- struction projects spanning periods of five to eight years, or sometimes even fifteen, as was the case in Vladivostok. Over the past year, we worked together with our regional banks to implement a programme aimed at tackling the issue of unfinished construction projects. I can now proudly say all our projects are running smoothly as planned in a controlled fashion. This is very important in the context of our plans to reformat our customer service outlets and transform the back of- fice function. In 2011, we completed the construction of several major infrastructure facilities. In designing our new infrastructure, we think not of tomor- row's world, but further into the future, I could perhaps call it "the day after tomorrow". Once construction is complete and Sberbank employees show up for their first day of work at our new facilities, we want them to have access to tomorrow's technologies and solutions. This is what drives us to incorporate the most advanced technologies, including energy efficiency solutions, into our projects. Last year we implemented several projects of note in this area.
