The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) published on Sunday some 11.5 million documents revealing "the offshore links of some of the planet’s most prominent people".

Among those companies is the Russian Sberbank and Rossiya Bank.

According to TASS, Russia's Rossiya Bank has become the target of information attacks of certain Russian and foreign mass media after publication of the report by ICIJ.

"Rossiya Bank became the target for groundless information attacks on repeated occasions and does not consider reasonable to make any comments in view of lack of grounds for such speculations," the bank says.

The bank claims it is carrying out its activities in accordance with the law and all the data that should be disclosed are in publicly available sources.

Meanwhile, the head of Russian largest lender Sberbank German Gref said on Tuesday the bank has never conducted any questionable transactions, the Interfax news agency informs.

“While I cannot comment on anything, I know for sure that through us there have never been any questionable deals made,” German Gref said.

The Moscow Times writes Greg also said the reports were “politicized” at the moment and that it was too early for him to comment.
