In 2024, Euroclear earned approximately €6.9 billion in interest from Russian assets that were frozen because of sanctions. In 2023, the amount decreased to approximately €4.4bn. Euroclear announced that it had established a €4bn provision in accordance with the European contingent income regulation. Incorporating this and taxes amounting to €1.69bn, the net profit reached €1.07bn.
