  • The United States imposed sanctions against Mosbirzhi, NCC and NSD. Starting from June 13, the dollar and the euro will stop trading on the stock exchange – transactions will take place on the over-the-counter market. The Bank of Russia will set the official exchange rate based on bank reports and over-the-counter trading.


  • The sanctions will not lead to a significant weakening of the ruble, limiting the fall to 10%. Bloomberg economists noted that in the event of a sharp drop in the exchange rate, the Bank of Russia and the Ministry of Finance will take measures to mitigate the shock by raising interest rates and increasing the supply of currency. It is also noted that the inflow of foreign currency to Russia through export-import channels will remain sufficient.


  • The exchange-traded currency market in Russia has lost dollars and euros. The sanctions have deprived Russia of the main part of the foreign exchange market. In May, more than 51% of the trading volume was accounted for transactions with the dollar and the euro. Now such transactions will move to a less liquid and transparent over-the-counter market, and you will have to focus on the official exchange rate set by the Central Bank.


  • The United States extended operations with the NCC until November 1. The United States has allowed energy-related transactions with the National Clearing Center (NCC) until November 1, despite sanctions against the Moscow Exchange. This decision includes transactions related to the extraction, processing, transportation and purchase of oil, petroleum products, natural gas and other energy resources.


  • Sanctions against the Moscow Exchange undermine confidence in the dollar. New restrictions continue to reduce the importance of the dollar as an international means of payment and reserve currency.


  • BRICS is developing a new monetary unit. The International Research Institute of Management Problems is working on the creation of a decentralized Unit system for settlements within the framework of the BRICS. The UNT coin will become the payment unit, which will help solve the problem of cross-border payments under sanctions.
