French bank Societe Generale said it was working to cut its risks in Russia, fearing Moscow''s tit-for-tat response to Western sanctions, while Brazilian planemaker Embraer joined Airbus and Boeing in halting parts supplies to Russian airlines.

LONDON, United Kingdom – With much of Moscow’s $640-billion reserves under lock and key in the West and sanctions crippling cross-border capital flows, investors fear Russia may be heading for its first ever default on sovereign hard currency debt. On Wednesday, March 2, foreign investors were effectively stuck with their holdings of rouble-denominated bonds – known as OFZs – after the central bank temporarily halted coupon payments and settlement system Euroclear stopped accepting Russian assets. A rouble debt default has precedent – Moscow reneged on OFZs during its 1998 financial crisis, but even then it kept up dollar bond payments. Before the latest devastating Western sanctions which froze central bank assets , such a Russian default was on no one’s radar. That is partly because Russia, which calls its actions in Ukraine a “special operation,” has just $40 billion in international bonds outstanding across 15 dollar- or euro-denominated issues – tiny relative to peers and its own gross domestic product.

Here''s How Much Bitcoin Russia Has Bought In The Past Week In the words of the Washington Post, the battle between Russia and Ukraine is "the world''s first crypto war" as both sides discover the advantages of a borderless, permissionless currency. Whether it is for enabling donations to Ukrainians (for arms or humanitarian needs) or for Russians evading Putin''s FX transfer bans or escaping western sanctions, both sides appear to see the benefits. Crypto interest in Russia on the rise ; and Google searches do show an uptick in interest in Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, from Russia and, to a lesser extent, from Ukraine. At this stage 11% of Russians already own crypto; so there is some familiarly with it. The recent decoupling of bitcoin from tech stocks shows the regime change in demand from some external factor… And this could get significantly higher as the potential for capital flight from Russia is large. In a recent note. Citi details that, net capital outflows from Russia during the 2014 crisis were 151bn (a surge of 90bn from the previous year).

Given its strong fundamentals, Citi's (C) disclosure of its approximate $10-billion exposure to Russia is not likely to affect its financials.

Zoltan Pozsar Warns Russian Sanctions Threaten Dollar''s Reserve Status Over the weekend, the world gasped in shock when Western powers announced that the nuclear option would be used against Russia in retaliation for its invasion of Ukraine - sanctions against the country''s central bank and targeted expulsions of key banks from SWIFT, a move which has effectively locked Russia out of the western financial system and left its vast oil export industry - a key lifeline for the Putin regime - in limbo. But the real reason for the shock is that this was the first time the global reserve currency was weaponized against a G20 economy, setting a clear precedent for how the west would and could respond to any other nation that followed in Russia''s footsteps (something which China is clearly contemplating vis-a-vis Taiwan, and is carefully studying just how the west responds to Moscow), As a result, and following this week''s dramatic freeze of the Russian central bank overseas assets, has prompted some to question just why countries build foreign currency reserves at all and, more broadly, whether the unprecedented western response to Russia hasn''t jeopardized the dollar''s reserve status.
