OREANDA-NEWS  A significant part of the frozen assets was returned to investors. This was stated by the head of the Central Bank of Russia (CBR) Elvira Nabiullina, quoted by TASS.

According to the head of the regulator, the issue of returning blocked funds remains in the focus of the Central Bank's attention.

"The issue of frozen assets remains in our focus. We managed to obtain a significant part of the frozen assets in one way or another through substitute bonds...> return to our investors," Nabiullina explained, speaking in the State Duma.

The Bank of Russia will continue to work on the return of blocked assets to domestic investors, the head of the Board of Directors promised.

Earlier, Nabiullina spoke about the shortage of personnel in the country. According to her, the shortage of workers in Russia has softened slightly. However, there are no prerequisites for it to disappear completely in the foreseeable future. The shortage of workers will really have to be reckoned with, because this is objectively a physical limitation for increasing production, which is noticeable not only according to statistics, but also according to monthly business surveys.
