The recommendations were published in the Financial Culture Telegram channel, an
educational project of the Bank of Russia.
First of all, the Central Bank reminded that after the imposition of sanctions, funds in dollars within Russia are no longer a reliable way to save money.
“If it is important for you to keep money in Russia, then it is better to use those currencies and instruments that cannot fall under sanctions and be blocked,” the post says.
It is noted that if for some reason it is necessary to keep part of the funds in the currencies of the countries that have imposed sanctions, then it is worth exploring the possibility of opening an account abroad.
Also in the post, the main problems that a holder of savings in dollars may face are: commission for maintaining an account, transferring money from an account in one Russian bank to one's account in another Russian bank, and others.
