International investors are betting that shares of Russian companies will rise sharply if the anti-Russian sanctions imposed by the West after February 2022 are lifted or eased, so they are looking for any opportunity to buy available assets of Russian companies, writes the ag. Bloomberg.
According to the agency's sources, American banks Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase are among the banks acting as intermediaries in transactions for the purchase of assets related to Russia.
The West failed to isolate the Russian economy, it managed to enter new markets, and many Russian companies avoided sanctions due to Western countries' fears of disrupting global economic processes, the agency notes.
On February 28, Bloomberg reportedthat international investors are actively looking for ways to circumvent sanctions against Russia in order to buy Russian assets, and the shares of Russian companies available to them on the world market have grown by tens of percent since the start of Russian-American negotiations. As the agency notes, investors are buying up everything that has even the slightest connection with Russia.
