Russian Central Bank assets and EU’s next steps

On 8th of May, the Stockholm Institute of Transition Economics (SITE) and the Stockholm Centre for Eastern European Studies (SCEEUS) will co-host a round table discussion on "Russian Central Bank assets and EU’s next steps" with invited guest speaker Nigel Gould-Davis from the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS).

Theme for the discussion

During the Swedish EU Presidency, seizing Russian assets held in Europe was a priority. This work has yielded some results, but the issue is moving forward internationally, with US, Canada and the UK taking a forward-leaning approach. In view of the upcoming G7 meeting in June, it is imperative for the EU to unite in thinking creatively about the 300 billion currently held in the EU. To support Ukraine, what are the next steps for the EU in making use of Russian Central Bank assets?

Speaker

Nigel Gould-Davis is a Senior Fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) and forefront figure in the field of EU managing frozen Russian assets.

The roundtable will be moderated by Torbjörn Becker, Director of SITE.
