Do we have an update for our frozen Russian GDR that eill be delisted end of this month? IBKR seems ti convert then as far as i have read. Can T212 coordinate to get this issue sorted, or we stay put and see what happens

Being with 212 is a bit like watching an episode of 24. Lots of tension, shouting and thinking - but eventually something gets done that solves the issue for everyone.

Tony please anything you can do will be greatly appreciated, I’ve got huge exposure to Evraz and tiny on Polymetal. I got myself into this ■■■■ and have now learnt the bitter lessons to restrict my investments to EU, UK & US.
My philosophy is that i will rather not make money than loose money so generally careful as to where i invest…just never saw the risks in Russia at the time i made those investment and also a few good fund managers had Evraz in their top ten holding at the time.

I am in the same situation. I was looking for Russian banks in London, but could not find any bank to open a account.
This is going to get more complicated – https://www.reddit.com/r/interactivebrokers/comments/vbfalv/trading_restrictions_on_eu_securities_for_russian/
need to see if other brokers follow suit and from which countries
Just a quick update: Gazprom (OGZD) has been moved from Xetra to Wiener Börse. However, nothing changes for shareholders, and the instrument remains suspended for trading. I’ll let you know as soon as we have any additional information.

Is also for the LSE GDR?
It might be worth considering that ‘diversification’ is key. What has happened here, unfortunately, is that no sane person would have thought the events that have unfolded this year would happen. They sadly have. Luckily for the majority, Russian stocks never made up much of global equity / index funds, so effects for most people should be limited(bar the issue with energy/oil, which when you look at it has been bubbling on for a few years).

Any update? And i can you please answer this question. Have you converted the shares via IBKR? OR converted generally?
I understand that. But has T212 gone thru the conversion proceeding? So at least i know something was done
It seems Clearstream will resume conversions on the 18th July. Hopefully we get an update by then
Any news about Russian ETFs ? e.g. Xtrackers Msci Russia Capped ETF ticker XMRC
