Following Russia's military attack on Ukraine, the branch offices of the Russian bank Sberbank in Slovenia are closed as of Monday and the bank's services are temporarily limited to card transactions, the Slovenian central bank announced.

Other services of Sberbank Slovenia will be unavailable until Wednesday morning, and withdrawals and payments are limited to €400 a day.

The central bank recalled that Sberbank was the only Russian-owned bank in Slovenia and that all other banks in the country were operating normally.

Sberbank Slovenia said on Monday morning that “in light of recent geopolitical developments” it had experienced a significant outflow of deposits within a short period of time and was looking for solutions to ensure the unimpeded functioning of all its clients.
