Anna Chapman, a member of the Russian spy ring deported by the United States in July, is writing a book on the potential of the Internet, said the bank that hired her as an adviser.
Chapman is also working on a project related to space exploration, FondServisBank said in a statement posted on its web site Monday, without elaborating.
The bank, which describes itself as “strategically orientated toward boosting the domestic economy” through investments in aerospace and other high-technology industries, said it hired Chapman last week.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
