What Tezis.io does

Tezis.io is described in firmographic data as a startup enabling investment in Russian and US stocks; the underlying operational business in the provided dataset is Gazprombank Investments (Газпромбанк Инвестиции), a Russian digital retail brokerage operated by OOO "Newton Investments" (Newton Investments LLC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gazprombank, one of Russia's largest state-linked banks. The legal entity was established in 2017 with a Bank of Russia broker license and expanded its regulatory footprint in April 2020 to include dealer, asset management, and depository licenses, enabling the platform to offer brokerage, margin trading (long and short), Pre-IPO investments, structured products, and custody under a single regulated roof. Distribution is exclusively digital: a web-based trading platform, a native Android application distributed via Google Play, and a web-based iOS experience, with self-serve account opening in minutes and no physical branch requirement.

The product surface targets Russian retail investors across the experience curve, ranging from beginner to self-directed, and includes stocks, bonds, mutual fund units (ПИФ), currencies (rubles and yuan), Individual Investment Accounts (IIS), model portfolios, investment ideas, Pre-IPO allocations, structured products, and a daily-percent money-market fund. Revenue is generated via a three-layer model: per-trade commissions (from 0.3% on the Basic tier, from 0.06% on the Investor tier), tiered monthly subscriptions (free on the Investor plan for balances ≥₽1M, otherwise ₽299/month; Personal Broker Comfort at from ₽3,000/month plus 1% annual on AUM), and premium advisory services delivered through dedicated personal managers to higher-value clients. Customer acquisition is product-led and content-driven — SEO, an educational blog covering stocks, bonds, market strategy, dividends, and podcasts, a Telegram channel (t.me/gpb_investments) hosting expert-led broadcasts, free investing courses, and aggressive promotional offers (e.g., "start" promo code for 0% commission and 13.75% annual on ruble balances). The platform has been recognized externally by the "Time of Innovations" award ("Product of the Year," per source data dated 2025) and an HH.ru HR-Brand award (per source data dated 2026), and the only disclosed external funding is a $1M round from Target Global Fintech Opportunities Fund in July 2018.

Broad incumbents

• Interactive Brokers: Global multi-asset digital broker offering Russian securities access alongside a far broader international product range — relevant benchmark for digital brokerage scale and commission economics.

• Sber Asset Management (Sberbank Asset Management): Asset management arm of Sberbank offering mutual funds (ПИФ) and discretionary mandates — directly comparable to Tezis.io's asset-management license and ОПИФ «Разумный инвестор» offering.

Regional players

• Freedom Holding (formerly Freedom Finance): Brokerage operating across CIS and selected international markets with Russian retail exposure; comparable multi-asset digital platform, though with broader geographic footprint than the Russia-only Tezis.io.
