This video discusses the recent sanctions against Russia. This video focusses on two main financial sanctions.
First, this includes freezing the Central Bank of Russia's (CBR's) assets. This mainly impacts reserve assets in G7 countries. This prevents Russia from supporting the Ruble. This has resulted in the Ruble falling signifcantly in value. Russia has attempted to support the Ruble by significantly increasing interest rates. However, this can also slow economic growht.
Second, many Russian banks have been cut out of the SWIFT inter-bank messaging system. This makes it more difficult (to impossible) for those banks to communicate with overseas counter-parts. This inhibits payments in relation to exports and imports. However, there are significant caveats: (1) it does not impact all banks (2) it does not impact all countries [i.e., non-SWIFT payments], and (3) it does not impact oil & gas. The SWIFT bank will put further pressure on the Ruble and further harm Russia's economy.
