Russia's Central Bank Chairman Sergei Ignatyev expressed concern over the country's high capital outflow on Tuesday.
"It looks like non-financial organizations have considerably increased their foreign assets, or balances on their accounts in foreign banks and property acquisitions in the last two months. I do not have complete information yet, so I cannot give an exhaustive answer, but I am also concerned about it," Ignatyev told a meeting of State Duma lower parliament house when asked about the reasons for capital flight.
Russia's net capital outflow amounted in January-September to $21 billion, including $8 billion in September-October, he said.
