Russia's central bank plans unified crypto risk rules for banks
- —The Bank of Russia wants a unified approach to assessing banks' crypto exposure instead of fragmented internal models
- —The standard would cover market, liquidity, operational and counterparty risks of digital assets
- —The document has not been published: no methodology, timelines or capital implications
- —The initiative complements a discussed 1% capital crypto risk limit for banks
Why it matters: A unified methodology would simplify supervision and reduce uncertainty for banks, but for now it is only an intention without obligations.
