MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Net sales of foreign currency by Russian export companies were at $21 billion in September, according to a report published by the Russian Central Bank on Thursday.
"SICIs [systemically important credit institutions], the main agent working with foreign currency earnings of exporters, were the leading currency sellers in the market. The amount of net sales of SICIs in September increased from 431.1 billion rubles ($ 6.7 billion) to 693.6 billion rubles ($10.9 billion). The combined amount of net sales of the largest exporters grew to $21 billion in September from $20.8 billion in August," the report said.
