It was used by the Assignation Bank until 1817, then by the State Commercial Bank of the Russian Empire until 1860 and by its successor the State Bank of the Russian Empire until the Russian Revolution. In 1930 the building was granted to Leningrad Institute of Finance and Economics, the forerunner of Saint Petersburg University of Economics.
