“The operations are fully carried out using the Russian system and it has nothing to do with the Georgian financial system. 

As the bank informs, the Payment Systems Company “Мир” is cooperating with the de facto republic of Abkhazia, which, as they say, may violate the law on the occupied territories.

As for the cooperation of the Georgian company, the assessment of this issue is beyond the competence of the National Bank.

The National Bank of Georgia has always operated and continues to work in full compliance with the standards set by international resolutions. We would like to remind you that the National Bank has already instructed the representatives of the Georgian financial sector to fulfill their obligations under the sanctions imposed,” - the statement issued by the National Bank of Georgia reads.
