Russian Central Bank chief Elvira Nabiullina has been dropped from the speaker lineup at\u00a0the\u00a0St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, RBC reported<\/a>, citing sources close to\u00a0the Central Bank.<\/p>\n

The sources offered no\u00a0explanation for her absence.<\/p>\n

Update: A\u00a0source close to\u00a0a\u00a0Russian state corporation told the business daily Vedomosti<\/a> that Nabiullina withdrew from the\u00a0St. Petersburg forum to\u00a0attend the funeral of\u00a0her adviser at\u00a0the Central Bank, Alexey Mozhin, who represented Russia as\u00a0an\u00a0executive director at\u00a0the International Monetary Fund from 1996 to\u00a02024. Mozhin died on\u00a0June 3, 2026, on\u00a0the eve of\u00a0his 70th birthday.<\/p>\n

Nabiullina was initially expected to\u00a0appear on\u00a0two panels: \u201cHow to\u00a0Return to\u00a0a\u00a0Trajectory of\u00a0Sustainable Economic Growth Amid Global Uncertainty\u201d and \u201cCyber Fraud: Who Foots the Bill?\u201d<\/p>\n

Elvira Nabiullina\u2019s third term as\u00a0head of\u00a0the Central Bank expires in\u00a02027, when under current law she is\u00a0required to\u00a0step down. Journalists at\u00a0The Bell named deputy head of\u00a0the presidential administration Maxim Oreshkin, Promsvyazbank chairman Pyotr Fradkov, and VTB head Andrei Kostin as\u00a0her most likely successors, though the outlet\u2019s sources also said<\/a> \u201cthe law can always be\u00a0changed.\u201d<\/p>\n
