NSD will not be able to unblock its assets in Clearstream accounts, lawyer Elena Ryazanova and investment banker Yevgeny Kogan said, citing a webinar by NSD. A condition for unblocking is termination of contractual relations between NSD and Clearstream until January 07, 2023, which is not feasible because there are sanctioned securities in NSD's account which cannot be transferred. According to Elena Ryazanova, NSD will officially post a press release on the subject by the end of the day.
