The first installment of the loan will go toward financing the construction of the new Ilyinsky Park business class residential complex, as well as other projects

In H110 Uniastrum Bank’s corporate credit portfolio grew 30 percent to around Rb 34 bn as of July 1, 2010. Loans to construction companies account for more than 20 percent of the portfolio.

The Ilyansky Park residential complex is situated in the Yuzhny microdistrict in the town of Krasnogorsk at the intersection of the Novorizhskoye and Ilyinskoye highways. The complex incorporates three 25-storey houses, underground parking, stores, a supermarket, consumer services, clinics, and children’s facilities. However, Ilyansky Park offers more than modern convenience and comfort: the complex is ideally located for easy access to the Zvenigorskoye, Volokolamskoye, Leningradskoye, Rublevskoye, and Mozhaiskoye highways.
