Who are the main claims of the Central Bank addressed to? As it turns out, they are mostly addressed to chairmen of the management committee and the board, to the bank’s top managers. “It is not that some inferior got access to the system and stole money electronically,” the ANSB chief executive underlined.
However, staff also steals in our country; we should not put the blame on owners alone. On the other hand, owners are to blame if employees steal money, for as often as not they economize on systems for safety and count on a miracle, Evdokimov said.
In the Sberbank (the Savings Bank of the Russian Federation) there was an incident of far simpler and more inelaborate swindle than the SocGen scandal. An employee wanted to be a network administrator to renders services connected with legal entities. In five days after his new appointment when he learnt an electronic key, he took advantage of the lacking control over his actions and transferred one million rubles to his own account. Later he reiterated his machinations and stole above five million rubles on the whole. In ten days he did not come to work. The resourceful employee is on the wanted list since that time.
How an ordinary employee contrived to organize such a machination? It is very simple. The director abolished daily accounts connected with legal entities and kept only monthly accounts. That is why they did not discover the theft at once. Besides, the bank mistreated the diskettes that helped to enter the system. The rogue used his opportunity and gained money easily.
So if a director is an honest and principled man who is not on the point of stealing, then he should be on alert and know whether his employees can do it instead of him. Indeed, sorting matches is of no interest. But when people deal with money, they are always tempted to lay hands on a good round sum. As they say, opportunity makes the thief.
