“As we can see, the Russian ruble is holding strong.
It is clear that it exists within the framework of certain rules that have been introduced by the Central Bank in order to respond to possible speculative attacks on the Russian currency,” Ginko said.
According to him, in the next year and a half, the Russian ruble will be among those currencies that are attractive to investors.
“There are certain restrictions associated with sanctions that may slow down interest in the Russian ruble.
But we set a condition for the increasing export of our goods: either the ruble will be included in the financial mechanism for payment, or we will not supply you with goods.
Thus, we are making a hole in the sanctions that imposed restrictions on foreign investors wishing to invest in the Russian ruble, ”concluded the economist.
Earlier, Dmitry Tulin, First Deputy Chairman of the Central Bank of Russia, said that Russian banks suffered losses in the amount of 1.5 trillion rubles in January-June 2022.
