In Russia, the share of foreign currency deposits decreased to a minimum in 17 years, to 6.8%. This is reported by the newspaper "News".

At the same time, Russians have not completely abandoned the dollar and euro, but have changed the way they store them. According to various estimates, Russians hold about $100 billion in their hands, which is several times more than the amount of currency stored in bank accounts.

Experts cited sanctions against the background of which banks refuse deposits in dollars and euros, introduce fees for maintaining foreign currency accounts, as well as high interest rates on ruble deposits, which make them more profitable than dollar deposits. For example, the rates on ruble deposits are 21% per annum, and on dollar deposits - 1.5%.;
