The exit of the Latvian Norvik Banka from the consortium of buyers of the Ukrainian "daughter" of "Sberbank" may be related to the EU sanctions against Russia, says the deputy head of the National Bank of Ukraine Ekaterina Rozhkova.

"I think they (Norvik Banka - Ed.. ) It was difficult to formalize, because when a bank buys shares of anyone, it has the same amount of capital. Plus Norvik works in the European Union, sanctions could have impact on Russia. Therefore, Norvik Banka as a structural unit of this transaction (purchase of the Ukrainian "Sberbank" - Ed.. ) Was excluded, "she said in an interview with the Internet publication" The Ministry of Finance ".
