Career in banking

In the late 2000s, Khotimsky Dmitry Vladimirovich returned to Russia. His younger brother asked him for investment advice. Due to the financial and economic crisis in 2009, the prices of bonds of one of the commercial banks decreased significantly. The brothers took a chance and bought securities, and a year later they sold them twice as expensive. After this successful decision, Dmitry Khotimsky became the investment manager of Sovcombank.

The investor developed a similar plan in 2014, when the currency crisis began in Russia. The ruble fell almost twice, the Bank of Russia significantly raised the key rate, so the Sovcombank council revised the restrictions on the share of issuers' bonds in portfolios and bought securities at reduced prices.
