Financial institutions holding Russian sovereign assets that have not reported them to the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) are now required to do so by Aug. 2.
According to a new reporting requirement for the Rebuilding Economic Prosperity and Opportunity for Ukrainians Act ( REPO for Ukrainians Act), financial institutions that have newly discovered or obtained Russian sovereign assets must report them to OFAC by Aug. 2, or within 10 days of the detection of the assets, the agency said Tuesday in a press release.
Reports on Russian sovereign assets can be made using OFAC’s new form.
