Wealthy clients were more likely to open deposits in yuan

Yuan deposits are still the prerogative of wealthy citizens. This was reported to Vedomosti by representatives of Russian banks. Alfa-Bank, Dom.RF and Bank St. Petersburg see the main request for such deposits mainly from premium clients. Sberbank, VTB, Novikombank, Zenit, Uralsib, Expobank, Asia-Pacific Bank (ATB) and Rosdorbank offer deposits in Chinese currency to all clients, but the average check is quite large, and some players set a high minimum deposit.
