  1. Article 1(5) of Council Regulation (EU)960/2014 replaces Article 5 of EU Regulation
    833/2014 with a new measure which imposes restrictions on:

    1. transferable securities and money market instruments issued by Russian
      banks, military equipment firms and oil firms listed in the Annex to this
      Notice. [See new Article 5 of Regulation 833].

    2. loans to any of the entities listed in the Annex to this Notice. There are limited
      exceptions to this prohibition. [See new Article 5 of Regulation 833].

  2. Where a legal person, entity or body is owned or acting on behalf of or at the
    direction of an entity listed in the Annex to this Notice, they may also be subject to
    these restrictions. [See new Article 5 of Regulation 833].

    “investment services” and provides a new definition of “transferable securities”.
