The economic impact of financial sanctions against Russia

The West has rolled out tough financial sanctions against Moscow with unprecedented speed, magnitude and multilateral co-operation. This move will not stop Russian tanks, but it will squarely impoverish President Vladimir Putin’s regime. Danny Glaser, global head of jurisdictional services at K2 Integrity and former assistant secretary at the US Treasury overseeing sanctions, and Christopher Smart, chief global strategist and head of the Barings Institute, as well as former US Treasury/National Security Council special assistant to the president, join OMFIF's US Chair Mark Sobel. They discuss the efficacy, historical context and the economic consequences of the sanctions across the globe.
