Moscow, Russia (CNN) -- One of the spies freed in a U.S.-Russia swap this summer has been hired as the adviser to a Russian bank, a bank spokesman confirmed on Tuesday.
She is Anna Chapman, one of of the 10 people handed over to Russia by the United States in exchange for four Russian prisoners -- a transfer that conjured the politics and tensions during the Cold War.
Chapman has been hired as adviser of Russia's FundServiceBank's president, Alexander Volovnik, and is responsible for investments and innovations as of October 1.
A written statement published on the bank's website, says that Chapman will be focusing on "IT innovations, and is currently working on a book about the new opportunities that internet offers in that area".
She is also working on a "culturological project related to space exploration," which is why she visited the Baikonur space launch complex recently, the statements says.
