MOSCOW, March 9 (Reuters) – Russia’s dominant lender Sberbank (SBER.MM) made a net profit of 270.5 billion roubles ($3.57 billion) in 2022, the lender said on Thursday, a significant drop from the year before as sweeping Western sanctions rattled Russia’s financial sector.
CEO German Gref said 2022 was a challenging year but the bank would now be able to resume consideration of dividend payments on its 2022 results.
