According to data from Rainforest Action Network, [JPMorgan Chase] is the largest global banker of Gazprom, another [Russian] state-owned energy company. Between 2016 and 2020, the group says, the firm provided the company with roughly $3.5 billion in financing.
UniCredit SpA, a European commercial bank and Gazprom’s next largest banker, came second at more than $2.3 billion, and was followed by Sberbank, Deutsche Bank AG and Crédit Agricole, which are based in Russia, Germany and France, respectively. Aside from JPMorgan, no other major U.S. banks were in the top 10.
