In addition, Rothschild & Co.’s wealth management unit has decided to stop accepting new Russian clients amid growing sanctions on Russian entities and individuals over Moscow’s military invasion of Ukraine, reported Bloomberg.
The move is part of a precautionary measure by the Paris-headquartered bank as it fears the US and European countries will impose sanctions on more individuals in the future, sources privy of the development told the news agency.
