Reuters broke news that Austria’s Raiffeisen Bank International is looking into leaving Russia, a move that would make it the first European bank to do so since the country’s invasion of Ukraine. Such a decision is not imminent, but could be triggered if the bank’s businesses in those countries need further cash or capital.

The bank’s shares rebounded after earlier sharp falls on the report.
