Ropes & Gray Dives into ETFs for Focused Podcast Series

The latest installment of Ropes & Gray LLP’s podcast series on ETFs discusses the ongoing impacts of the Russia/Ukraine conflict on ETFs, including questions related to valuation and custody of Russian and Russian-related assets. The podcast delves into Executive Order 14071, issued on April 6, which prohibits “new investment in the Russian Federation by a United States person, wherever located” but notes the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has not provided clarity on the scope of the new investment prohibition.
