“In addition to delivering a robust underlying business performance, Euroclear continues to diligently implement the international sanctions on Russian assets. Euroclear is also complying with its important obligations to put the windfall contribution into effect and will soon make a first payment of EUR 1.55 billion to the European Fund for Ukraine,” Euroclear CEO Valerie Urbain noted.
