Kseniya Valentinovna YUDAYEVA

Advisor of the Chairman of the Bank of Russia, member of the Board of Directors of the Bank of Russia. The Bank of Russia is the state body responsible for monetary policy and maintaining financial stability in order to continue Russia's military aggression against Ukraine. Alongside her superior Elvira Nabiullina, Ksenia Yudaeva is a key figure in ensuring the financial stability of the Russian economy amid Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine. Her activities play an important role in Russia's resistance to international sanctions pressure from the international community. She remains one of the de facto leaders of the Central Bank of Russia. Her transition from the position of First Deputy Chairperson of the Central Bank of Russia is linked to an attempt to minimize her personal sanction risks.
