Bank of Georgia large-scalely closes accounts for Russians and Belarusians

Bank of Georgia massively closes accounts to Russians and Belarusians for no explanation, Georgian media reported with reference to posts of social networks.

to withdraw funds, the bank, according to SMS sent by them, gives 5 days.

The principles of closing accounts remain unknown: both new depositors and those that have been used by the bank’s services for several years are known, even about cases of closing school cards.

Meanwhile, the media relations manager Nini Pophadze informed Sputnik Georgia that “the reason for the closure of Russian citizens in Bank of Georgia is the domestic policy of the bank.”

“The only thing I can say, and that it is no different from what is written in SMS is the policy and decision of the bank. Unfortunately, I can’t say anything more,” she added.
