OFAC’s action includes the designation of Gazprombank, more than 50 internationally connected Russian banks, more than 40 Russian securities registrars, and 15 Russian finance officials. OFAC is also issuing an alert describing sanctions risks related to Russia’s System for Transfer of Financial Messages (SPFS), which the Kremlin created and uses to evade sanctions.“Today’s sanctions targeting Russia’s largest remaining non-designated bank, as well as dozens of other financial institutions and officials in Russia, will further diminish and degrade Russia’s war machine. This sweeping action will make it harder for the Kremlin to evade U.S. sanctions and fund and equip its military,” said Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen. “We will continue to take decisive steps against any financial channels Russia uses to support its illegal and unprovoked war in Ukraine.”GAZPROMBANKOFAC is designating Gazprombank Joint Stock Company (Gazprombank) alongside its six foreign subsidiaries. Gazprombank is a conduit for Russia to purchase military materiel for its war effort against Ukraine. The Russian government also uses Gazprombank to pay its soldiers, including for combat bonuses, and to compensate the families of Russian soldiers killed fighting Putin’s brutal war against Ukraine. Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom have previously sanctioned Gazprombank.Luxembourg-based bank GPB International SA, Hong Kong-based GPB Financial Services Hong Kong Limited, Cyprus-based GPB Financial Services Limited and GPB-DI Holdings Limited, Switzerland-based Gazprombank (Switzerland) Ltd, and South Africa-based GPB Africa and Middle East Pty Ltd are wholly owned subsidiaries of Gazprombank. Gazprombank is being designated pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy. GPB International SA, GPB Financial Services Hong Kong Limited, GPB Financial Services Limited, GPB-DI Holdings Limited, Gazprombank (Switzerland) Ltd, and GPB Africa and Middle East Pty Ltd are being designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for being owned or controlled by, or for having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, Gazprombank. All entities owned 50 percent or more, directly or indirectly, by Gazprombank or the six designated Gazprombank subsidiaries, are subject to blocking, even if not identified by OFAC.Concurrently with this action, OFAC is issuing two new general licenses (GL) authorizing U.S. persons to wind down transactions involving Gazprombank, among other financial institutions, and to take the necessary steps to divest from debt or equity issued by Gazprombank. OFAC is also amending Russia-related GL 53 to ensure that diplomatic banking activities involving Gazprombank are not disrupted. OFAC continues to maintain a variety of authorizations, including GLs authorizing transactions related to agricultural commodities, medicine, medical devices, certain transactions in support of non-governmental organizations, the official business of third-country diplomatic missions located in the Russian Federation, and certain transactions and official business of certain international organizations and entities. SYSTEM FOR TRANSFER OF FINANCIAL MESSAGES OFAC is also issuing an alert underscoring the sanctions risk for foreign financial institutions that join Russia’s System for Transfer of Financial Messages (commonly known by its Russian acronym, SPFS, short for Sistema Peredachi Finansovykh Soobshcheniy). SPFS is part of the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy because of its role facilitating communication between financial institutions engaged in Russia’s financial system. This means that any foreign financial institution that joins or has already joined SPFS may be designated for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy pursuant to E.O. 14024. Russia has used and promoted SPFS, designed as an alternative to Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) network, to maintain international financial connectivity, evade sanctions, and fund its war effort. OFAC views joining SPFS after publication of this alert as a red flag and is prepared to more aggressively target foreign financial institutions that take such action. OFAC also urges stakeholders to review their exposure to institutions that have joined SPFS, as such banks may be conduits for Russian sanctions evasion.DOZENS OF RUSSIAN BANKSFurther curtailing Russia’s connections to the international financial system, OFAC is designating more than 50 small-to-medium Russian banks to prevent Russia from abusing the international financial system to pay for the technology and equipment it needs to sustain its illegal and unjust war against Ukraine. Foreign financial institutions that maintain correspondent relationships with these banks should be aware that continuing to do so entails significant sanctions risk.For more information about these targets, please see Annex 1 below. RUSSIAN SECURITIES REGISTRARSOFAC is aware that Russia has attempted to evade or avoid OFAC sanctions on the National Settlement Depository by requiring, via Presidential Decree 840, the transfer of certain securities to local Russian securities registrars. Today, OFAC is designating more than 40 such registrars. OFAC has also updated FAQ 1197 to provide further guidance on securities held at or otherwise involving these registrars.For more information about these targets, please see Annex 2 below.CBR OFFICIALS In September 2022, OFAC designated Central Bank of the Russian Federation (CBR) Governor Elvira Naibullina and First Deputy Governor Olga Skorobogatova. At the time, Treasury noted that Russia’s financial technocrats have, directly and indirectly, supported the Kremlin’s unprovoked war against Ukraine. Today, OFAC is designating 11 additional CBR officials, including those involved in maintaining Russia’s international financial connectivity or promoting alternate financial pathways that Russia can exploit to pay for much-needed equipment and technology.For more information about these targets, please see Annex 3 below. VTB SHANGHAI AND SBERBANK NEW DELHI STAFFToday’s action also includes designations of key Russian staff members at U.S.-designated VTB Bank Public Joint Stock Company’s branch in Shanghai, China (VTB Shanghai) and U.S.-designated Public Joint Stock Company Sberbank of Russia’s branch in New Delhi, India (Sberbank New Delhi). The following Russian nationals are being designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy:Andrei Anisimov is Sberbank New Delhi’s Deputy Managing Director.

In addition, any entities that are owned, directly or indirectly, 50 percent or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked. All transactions by U.S. persons or within (or transiting) the United States that involve any property or interests in property of designated or blocked persons are prohibited unless authorized by a general or specific license issued by OFAC, or exempt. These prohibitions include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any blocked person and the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person. Non-U.S. persons are also prohibited from causing or conspiring to cause U.S. persons to wittingly or unwittingly violate U.S. sanctions, as well as from engaging in conduct that evades U.S. sanctions. OFAC’s Economic Sanctions Enforcement Guidelines provide more information regarding OFAC’s enforcement of U.S. sanctions, including the factors that OFAC generally considers when determining an appropriate response to an apparent violation. In addition, foreign financial institutions that conduct or facilitate significant transactions or provide any service involving Russia’s military-industrial base run the risk of being sanctioned by OFAC. For additional guidance, please see the updated OFAC advisory, “Updated Guidance for Foreign Financial Institutions on OFAC Sanctions Authorities Targeting Support to Russia’s Military-Industrial Base,” as well as OFAC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) 1146-1157.The power and integrity of OFAC sanctions derive not only from OFAC’s ability to designate and add persons to the SDN List, but also from its willingness to remove persons from the SDN List consistent with the law. The ultimate goal of sanctions is not to punish, but to bring about a positive change in behavior. For information concerning the process for seeking removal from an OFAC list, including the SDN List, please refer to OFAC’s Frequently Asked Question 897 here. For detailed information on the process to submit a request for removal from an OFAC sanctions list, please click here.Any persons included on the SDN List pursuant to E.O. 14024 may be subject to additional export restrictions administered by the Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).For identifying information on the individuals and entities sanctioned today, click

class="text-align-center"><em>Treasury imposes sanctions on dozens of Russian banks, securities registrars, and finance officials; OFAC issues alert warning of risks of joining Russia’s System for Transfer of Financial Messages</em></p><p>WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) took another major step in implementing commitments made by G7 leaders to curtail Russia’s use of the international financial system to further its war against Ukraine. OFAC’s action includes the designation of Gazprombank, more than 50 internationally connected Russian banks, more than 40 Russian securities registrars, and 15 Russian finance officials. OFAC is also issuing an alert describing sanctions risks related to Russia’s System for Transfer of Financial Messages (SPFS), which the Kremlin created and uses to evade sanctions.</p><p>“Today’s sanctions targeting Russia’s largest remaining non-designated bank, as well as dozens of other financial institutions and officials in Russia, will further diminish and degrade Russia’s war machine. This sweeping action will make it harder for the Kremlin to evade U.S. sanctions and fund and equip its military,” said Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen. “We will continue to take decisive steps against any financial channels Russia uses to support its illegal and unprovoked war in Ukraine.”</p><h3>GAZPROMBANK</h3><p>OFAC is designating <strong>Gazprombank Joint Stock Company </strong>(Gazprombank) alongside its six foreign subsidiaries. Gazprombank is a conduit for Russia to purchase military materiel for its war effort against Ukraine. The Russian government also uses Gazprombank to pay its soldiers, including for combat bonuses, and to compensate the families of Russian soldiers killed fighting Putin’s brutal war against Ukraine. Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom have previously sanctioned Gazprombank.</p><p>Luxembourg-based bank<strong> GPB International SA</strong>,<strong> </strong>Hong Kong-based <strong>GPB Financial Services Hong Kong Limited</strong>, Cyprus-based<strong> GPB Financial Services Limited </strong>and <strong>GPB-DI Holdings Limited</strong>, Switzerland-based <strong>Gazprombank (Switzerland) Ltd</strong>, and South Africa-based<strong> GPB Africa and Middle East Pty Ltd</strong> are wholly owned subsidiaries of Gazprombank. </p><p>Gazprombank is being designated pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy. GPB International SA, GPB Financial Services Hong Kong Limited, GPB Financial Services Limited, GPB-DI Holdings Limited, Gazprombank (Switzerland) Ltd, and GPB Africa and Middle East Pty Ltd are being designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for being owned or controlled by, or for having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, Gazprombank. All entities owned 50 percent or more, directly or indirectly, by Gazprombank or the six designated Gazprombank subsidiaries, are subject to blocking, even if not identified by OFAC.</p><p>Concurrently with this action, OFAC is issuing two new general licenses (GL) authorizing U.S. persons to wind down transactions involving Gazprombank, among other financial institutions, and to take the necessary steps to divest from debt or equity issued by Gazprombank. OFAC is also amending Russia-related GL 53 to ensure that diplomatic banking activities involving Gazprombank are not disrupted. OFAC continues to maintain a <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/selected-general-licenses-issued-ofac">variety of authorizations</a>, including GLs authorizing transactions related to agricultural commodities, medicine, medical devices, certain transactions in support of non-governmental organizations, the official business of third-country diplomatic missions located in the Russian Federation, and certain transactions and official business of certain international organizations and entities. </p><h3>SYSTEM FOR TRANSFER OF FINANCIAL MESSAGES </h3><p>OFAC is also <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/media/933656/download?inline">issuing an alert</a> underscoring the sanctions risk for foreign financial institutions that join Russia’s System for Transfer of Financial Messages (commonly known by its Russian acronym, SPFS, short for <em>Sistema Peredachi Finansovykh Soobshcheniy</em>). SPFS is part of the <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/media/918726/download?inline">financial services sector</a> of the Russian Federation economy because of its role facilitating communication between financial institutions engaged in Russia’s financial system. This means that any foreign financial institution that joins or has already joined SPFS may be designated for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy pursuant to E.O. 14024. Russia has used and promoted SPFS, designed as an alternative to Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) network, to maintain international financial connectivity, evade sanctions, and fund its war effort. OFAC views joining SPFS after publication of this alert as a red flag and is prepared to more aggressively target foreign financial institutions that take such action. OFAC also urges stakeholders to review their exposure to institutions that have joined SPFS, as such banks may be conduits for Russian sanctions evasion.</p><h3>DOZENS OF RUSSIAN BANKS</h3><p>Further curtailing Russia’s connections to the international financial system, OFAC is designating more than 50 small-to-medium Russian banks to prevent Russia from abusing the international financial system to pay for the technology and equipment it needs to sustain its illegal and unjust war against Ukraine. Foreign financial institutions that maintain correspondent relationships with these banks should be aware that continuing to do so entails significant sanctions risk.</p><p>For more information about these targets, please see <a href="#ftnref1">Annex 1</a> below. </p><h3>RUSSIAN SECURITIES REGISTRARS</h3><p>OFAC is aware that Russia has attempted to evade or avoid OFAC sanctions on the <a href="/news/press-releases/jy2404">National Settlement Depository</a> by requiring, via Presidential Decree 840, the transfer of certain securities to local Russian securities registrars. Today, OFAC is designating more than 40 such registrars.  OFAC has also updated <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/faqs/1197">FAQ 1197</a> to provide further guidance on securities held at or otherwise involving these registrars.</p><p>For more information about these targets, please see <a href="#_Annex2">Annex 2</a> below.</p><p><strong>CBR OFFICIALS </strong></p><p>In September 2022, OFAC designated <a href="/news/press-releases/jy0612">Central Bank of the Russian Federation</a> (CBR) Governor <a href="https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy0981">Elvira Naibullina</a> and First Deputy Governor <a href="https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy0981">Olga Skorobogatova</a>. At the time, Treasury noted that Russia’s financial technocrats have, directly and indirectly, supported the Kremlin’s unprovoked war against Ukraine. Today, OFAC is designating 11 additional CBR officials, including those involved in maintaining Russia’s international financial connectivity or promoting alternate financial pathways that Russia can exploit to pay for much-needed equipment and technology.</p><p>For more information about these targets, please see <a href="#_Annex3">Annex 3</a> below. </p><h3>VTB SHANGHAI AND SBERBANK NEW DELHI STAFF</h3><p>Today’s action also includes designations of key Russian staff members at U.S.-designated <a href="/news/press-releases/jy0608">VTB Bank Public Joint Stock Company</a>’s branch in Shanghai, China (VTB Shanghai) and U.S.-designated <a href="/news/press-releases/jy0705">Public Joint Stock Company Sberbank of Russia</a>’s branch in New Delhi, India (Sberbank New Delhi). </p><p>The following Russian nationals are being designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy:</p><p><strong>Andrei Anisimov </strong>is Sberbank New Delhi’s Deputy Managing Director. </p><p><strong>Elena Fedkina</strong> is a VTB Shanghai Relationship Manager. </p><p><strong>Ilya Lishenko </strong>is VTB Shanghai’s Senior Relationship Manager. </p><p><strong>Roman Logov </strong>is VTB Shanghai’s Deputy General Manager. </p><p>Since February 2022, OFAC has designated dozens of Russia-based staff at Russian banks and continues to investigate Russian and third-country nationals working at foreign branches, representative offices, and subsidiaries of Russian banks for designation pursuant to E.O. 14024.</p><p class="text-align-center">~ ~ ~ ~ ~</p><p id="#_ftnref1">ANNEX 1: DOZENS OF RUSSIAN BANKS</p><p>The following Russia-based financial institutions and individual are being designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for operating or having operated in the financial services sector of the Russian Federation economy:</p><ul><li><strong>Aktsionernoe Obshchestvo Bank Agroros </strong>is a bank headquartered in Saratov, Russia.</li><li><strong>Bank Iturup LLC </strong>is a bank headquartered in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Russia. </li><li><strong>BBR Bank Joint Stock Company </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia.</li><li><strong>BCS Bank AO </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia.</li><li><strong>Bratsky Narodny Bank JSC </strong>is a bank headquartered in Bratsk, Russia.</li><li><strong>Centrocredit Bank </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia.<strong> </strong></li><li><strong>Commercial Bank Energotransbank Joint Stock Company </strong>is a bank headquartered in Kaliningrad, Russia. </li><li><strong>Commercial Bank Khlynov Joint Stock Company </strong>is a bank headquartered in Kirov, Russia.<strong> </strong></li><li><strong>Commercial Bank Kremlyovskiy </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia.<strong> </strong></li><li><strong>Commercial Joint Stock Bank Viking</strong> is a bank headquartered in Saint Petersburg, Russia.</li><li><strong>Corporate Finance Bank LLC </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia.</li><li><strong>Evrofinance Mosnarbank </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia. <a href="https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sm622">Evrofinance Mosnarbank</a> was previously designated pursuant to E.O. 13850.</li><li><strong>Fora Bank Joint Stock Commercial Bank </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia.</li><li><strong>Garant Invest Bank Joint Stock </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia. </li><li><strong>Interstate Bank </strong>is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia. </li><li><strong>Joint Stock Commercial Bank National Reserve Bank Joint Stock Company </strong>(NRB)is a bank headquartered in Moscow, Russia. <strong>Daniel Haindl</strong> (Haindl) is the Senior Vice President of NRB.

In addition, any entities that are owned, directly or indirectly, 50 percent or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked. All transactions by U.S. persons or within (or transiting) the United States that involve any property or interests in property of designated or blocked persons are prohibited unless authorized by a general or specific license issued by OFAC, or exempt. These prohibitions include the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any blocked person and the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person. Non-U.S. persons are also prohibited from causing or conspiring to cause U.S. persons to wittingly or unwittingly violate U.S. sanctions, as well as from engaging in conduct that evades U.S. sanctions. OFAC’s <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/media/7566/download?inline">Economic Sanctions Enforcement Guidelines</a> provide more information regarding OFAC’s enforcement of U.S. sanctions, including the factors that OFAC generally considers when determining an appropriate response to an apparent violation. </p><p>In addition, foreign financial institutions that conduct or facilitate significant transactions or provide any service involving Russia’s military-industrial base run the risk of being sanctioned by OFAC. For additional guidance, please see the <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/media/932436/download?inline">updated OFAC advisory</a>, “Updated Guidance for Foreign Financial Institutions on OFAC Sanctions Authorities Targeting Support to Russia’s Military-Industrial Base,” as well as OFAC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) <a href="https://ofac.treasury.gov/faqs/search?field_faq_number%5bmin%5d=1146&field_faq_number%5bmax%5d=1157">1146-1157</a>.</p><p>The power and integrity of OFAC sanctions derive not only from OFAC’s ability to designate and add persons to the SDN List, but also from its willingness to remove persons from the SDN List consistent with the law. The ultimate goal of sanctions is not to punish, but to bring about a positive change in behavior.
