Exec: Sberbank to offer own messenger Dialog by 2019

ST. PETERSBURG, May 25 (PRIME) -- Major Russian bank Sberbank will finalize its messenger Dialog (Dialogue) and will present it to the market at the end of 2018, First Deputy Chairman Lev Khasis said on Friday on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

“We’re actively developing messenger Dialog as a corporate one that will enable our employees to have a means of communications with each other and the company,” Khasis said.

“I think, since the messenger is protected from other external influences, it would be quite possible in theory to offer it to other big companies or state entities. Yes, we presume that an industrial version will be available for sale to companies in Russia from the end of the year.”

The messenger could have secret chats and stickers, he said.
