Correction
Following the portrait of Radovan Vávra in the “Where Are They Now” section of our March issue, we received a request from Mr Vávra to correct some of the published information. Our article stated that Union banka had been put under forced administration, when in fact the bank was closed on the initiative of its managers. Mr Vávra stated that he personally decided to close down the bank in order to protect the depositors savings, “after the government decided, quite to the contrary of its long term strategy and repeated claims, not to participate in the restructuring of Union banka.” Mr Vávra was subsequently removed from his position by the supervisory board controlled by the company Investmart.
