RBI does not operate a complaints mechanism for individuals or communities who might have been affected by its finance.
Stakeholders may raise complaints via the OECD National Contact Point (OECD Watch).
This page evaluates Raiffeisen Bank International's responses to instances of alleged human rights violations linked to its finance, raised by civil society organisations. It is not intended to be exhaustive, but covers selected impacts raised by BankTrack and other civil society partners since 2016. For the full scoring methodology, see here. For more information about BankTrack's evaluation of bank responses to human rights impacts, see the 2021 report "Actions speak louder: assessing bank responses to human rights violations".

Partner organisation Reclaim Finance tracks the coal, oil and gas policies of financial institutions, including banks, in their Coal Policy Tool (CPT) and the Oil and Gas Policy Tracker (OGPT). BankTrack works closely with Reclaim Finance and endorses their policy assessments. Find further details on their assessment of Raiffeisen Bank's fossil fuel policy below.
Banks and Russia
Banks and Russian Aggression in Ukraine
BankTrack is keeping track of the public response of Raiffeissen Bank to Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine. Despite having publicly condemned the war, Raiffeissen Bank - as indicated by Leave-Russia.org - is the largest international bank still operating in Russia. We categorise its exposure to Russia as large, with over $25 billion of financial assets. Raiffeissen Bank also supports the Russian fossil fuel industry through investments, loans, and underwriting. For further details, see the table linked below.
