How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| IMOEX | Expanded sanctions impair access to foreign technology, counterparties and financing for listed Russian companies. | Down1-4w | The EU added 826 military-industrial companies and 743 executives to its restrictive-measures list. |
| RUB | Broader sanctions can reduce foreign-currency inflows and raise Russia's external transaction frictions. | Down1-5d | The package substantially expanded the number of sanctioned Russian entities and executives. |
| ITA.MI | European defense firms with stronger order expectations may face valuation pressure if sanctions prolong regional geopolitical risk and fiscal burdens. | Down1-4w | The EU package responds to continuing Russian military activity and expands economic pressure. |
