Britain will deprive Mosbirzh of the status of “recognized”: will the Russian stock market suffer

There are no grounds for new investments in Russia – Great Britain.

Yesterday the Moscow Stock Exchange itself announced that Britain will deprive it of “recognized” status. This is the continuation of sanctions against Russia. The press service of the Moscow Stock Exchange later commented on how this would affect its work, according to Russian media.

According to the press service, Lucy Fraser, the Secretary of the Treasury of the United Kingdom, said that the move should be interpreted as a clear signal. “There are no grounds for new investments in Russia.” In other words, this is a continuation of the policy of sanctions against Russia.

Among the main reasons for the revocation of the status – restrictions imposed on British investors in transactions on the “Moscow Exchange”, if the restriction is not removed by May 5, the “Moscow Exchange” will lose its status.
