Rușii retrag miliarde de euro din bănci de teama naționalizării pentru război

In 2026, Russian citizens withdrew approximately €24.4 billion from banks due to fears about the economy and government intervention. The demand for cash has surged, with major banks experiencing significant deposit outflows. Gazprombank and Rosselkhozbank were among the hardest hit, losing billions in deposits. The trend reflects a growing distrust in the banking system as the war continues to strain the economy. Despite the Central Bank's efforts to maintain liquidity, the preference for cash indicates a lack of confidence in financial institutions. The economic situation is further complicated by rising costs of war and a slowing GDP growth.
