The unprecedented situation leads RBI to consider its position in Russia. We are therefore assessing all strategic options for the future of Raiffeisenbank Russia, up to and including a carefully managed exit from Raiffeisenbank in Russia. RBI and its subsidiary banks continue to operate in compliance with local and international sanction laws. The Russian subsidiary of JSC Raiffeisenbank not only officially recognizes the so-called Donetsk and Luhansk "people's republics", but also provides favorable credit terms to the Russian occupiers in Ukraine. Raiffeisen Bank's Russian branch halts opening of new corporate accounts. The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption included the Austrian banking group Raiffeisen Bank International in the list of international sponsors of the war for the continuation of the bank's work in Russia and the official recognition of the so-called "DPR" and "LPR". As reported, Raiffeisen paid 4.8 times more to the Russian budget in 2022 than for the entire pre-war year - 559 million euros (~$615million). It should be noted that this is equal to the cost of about 95 Kalibr missiles, with which the terrorist state regularly fires at peaceful Ukrainian cities. In addition, the bank plays along with Russian propaganda, calling the war a "special military operation."
