Foreign investors withdrew $36 bln after selling Russian enterprises. RIA reported on Monday that foreign investors who left Russia after selling their businesses between March 2022 and March 2023 withdrew $36 billion, citing Central Bank data.
After Moscow invaded Ukraine in February 2022, many of the world’s largest companies left or reduced their operations in Russia.
In March 2022-23, the central bank reported 200 sale deals, 20% of which were big asset sales exceeding $100 million.
Moscow calls its Ukraine activities a special military operation, but Kyiv and its Western allies call them an unjustified territory grab.
