Инвесторы в американские акции через биржу СПБ пишут в SEC

------------------------------
Hello! I am E*** B****, a citizen of the Russian Federation, and I am writing to you because I have had a disaster. I got into a difficult financial situation, lost access to trading in US securities. I can't buy drawdowns, and I don't get dividends, and this was my only earnings.I have always paid taxes regularly and have not violated US laws. I have never supported Putin's policies and have always been in opposition to his actions. I do not support the fighting in Ukraine. I wrote requests, but official sources say that the blocking is coming from your side. I really ask you to help restore access to my assets, because I am a taxpayer and the United States, too. Sincerely, E*** B***.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing regarding an issue faced by foreign investors who have been investing in foreign stocks through Russian brokerage accounts.
Hundreds of thousands people held US and EU stocks in Russian brokerage accounts (primarily VTB Bank) at the start of the Russian invasion in Ukraine. When VTB Bank was sanctioned, they reassured us that our foreign stocks will be safe and have transferred us to a different brokerage Alfa Bank that was not sanctioned at that time. However, all our foreign stocks transferred from VTB to Alfa are frozen and both banks can't give us a clear explanation on why that happened. I just want to point out that I am speaking on behalf of honest private investors who merely invest in US and EU stocks to keep our savings safe. We are deeply saddened by the war which we do not support. Many of us have left the aggressor country and do not wish to be associated with all its wrongdoings. There are no personal sanctions against us and so we consider the freezing of our assets completely unacceptable and illegal. VTB and Alfa banks just say that our foreign stocks are frozen by Euroclear and provide completely no assistance. Please assist us on what we can do to gain access to our stocks. The Central Bank of Russia refuses to assist us and the court cases against the VTB or Alfa Banks will lead to nothing due to the corrupt system in the country. We have no one else that can provide assistance.

Can you please let us know whether our US and EU stocks that we bought in the Saint Petersburg stock exchange have actually been frozen by Euroclear? And what can we do in that case? I can provide any documentation needed.

Please give me some clarification on the subject if you can or let me know who I can contact further. Thanks!

Так как сейчас посыплются массовые обращения в SEC, то большая вероятность что СПБ биржу просто лишат всех каналов доступа к американским акциям и акции будут заблокированы полностью. Поэтому я бы не тянул с фиксацией прибыли и полного выхода в кэш. Прямо сегодня. Завтра может быть поздно.
