The Central Bank of the Russian Federation appears 11 times in Epstein documents, exclusively as a regulatory authority overseeing Merrill Lynch's Russian operations, with no direct evidence linking it to Jeffrey Epstein or his associates.
All 11 mentions occur in identical boilerplate text identifying Merrill Lynch Securities in Moscow as being 'regulated by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.' These appear to be standard compliance disclosures within Merrill Lynch documents, likely from automated reports or regulatory filings. The Central Bank is never mentioned as a subject of investigation or as having any direct relationship with Epstein—it merely appears as the regulatory backdrop for financial institutions.
Key Highlights
- •The Central Bank appears in exactly the same sentence structure across all 11 documents, suggesting copy-pasted regulatory language rather than substantive mentions
- •All mentions are tied to Merrill Lynch's Russian subsidiary, not to Epstein or his associates directly
- •No evidence of the Central Bank being investigated, referenced in connection with Epstein's activities, or having any personal/professional relationship with anyone in the files
