👀 Russia 🇷🇺: The volume of suspicious transactions decreased by 21% in 2024

The Bank of Russia reports that the total volume of suspicious transactions at the end of 2024 amounted to 90 billion rubles. Of this amount, 64.2 billion rubles were related to cash withdrawals.

➡️ The volume of cash withdrawals made via payment cards, from both businesses and individuals, decreased by half, totaling 6.8 billion rubles. The informal sector appears to be attracting more personal clients.

➡️ Money transfers abroad in 2024 reached 25.6 billion rubles, representing a 17% decrease compared to 2023. Nearly half of these transactions were pre-payment schemes for imported products that were never actually brought into Russia.

➡️ On the other hand, the volume of suspicious transfers for the benefit of non-residents for products acquired within Russia without crossing the border more than doubled, rising from 3 to 6.8 billion rubles.

➡️ According to data from the Bank of Russia, the main sectors demanding informal financial services are the construction industry (approximately a third of suspicious transactions), trade, and the services sector (approximately a quarter of the total volume).
