| Summary: | The establishment of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation (CBR) as a unified or “Mega
Regulator” in 2013 is an emblem of the far reaching changes to the legal and supervisory
landscape in recent years. The level of compliance with the Basel Core Principles (BCP) reflects the transitional nature of
the supervisory practices in Russia at the time of the assessment. The CBR is in the course of developing and enhancing its Risk Based Approach to supervision. The regulatory approach in the Russian Federation is highly rules based and this presents
some specific challenges to an effective risk based supervisory regime. Supervision and Anti-Money Laundering and/Countering Terrorist Financing (AML/CFT)
regulations have been improved. Effective communication and flow of information has been improving but some limitations
still apply. |
