(Reuters) – The Russian government has instructed the finance ministry not to pay a dividend on 2021 results for common and preferred shares of Sberbank, the country’s largest lender, according to a government order published on Friday.

It said the measures are aimed at providing stable lending to corporate clients and financial organisations.
