How times have changed.
If Barclays is successful in its £200million bid for Russia's Expobank, it may find that the assets are more tangible than it had imagined.
Scantily-clad employees – ranging from secretaries to senior executives – have spiced up the Moscow-based bank's image with a 2008 calendar that is certain to raise eyebrows with the UK giant.
The women, aged between 20 and 33, peeled off to reveal an unexpected side to the world of commerce, with their pictures accompanied by provocative slogans doubling as advertising messages.
The models include the bank's chief economist for super-rich VIP clients, Anna Pogodina (Miss March), and her boss, Julia Kovyneva (Miss April), who is sprawled across a bed.
Senior manager Maria Guterman begins the year with her modesty protected by only a tray of cakes.

I remember kids at school making other kids pull their cheeks open and recite stupid, yet still humourous, lines that somehow gave a slight hint of childish innuendo.
The best was 'My Dad's a Merchant Banker' after which all the cheeky little scallywags would giggle like girls and laugh about what the poor kid had said.
Here comes into play Karma, see the poor kid may well have unknowingly pre-pubescently slandered his father, but at least Daddy can introduce him to some of Expobank's calender cashiers...

But that picture is so badly and obviously photoshopped! Look at the unnatural turn of her head and how big it looks next to her body. Then look at her oddly manipulated left arm and how short the elbow is. I'm not saying that the actual bank employees posed, but jesus christ they REALLY need a better photoshopper if they're going to go that route!!
