Raiffeisen Bank International AG said it will book a provision in its fourth-quarter results after a Russian court put its unit there on the hook for more than €2 billion ($2.08 billion) of damages.

The ruling is related to legal proceedings by Rasperia Trading — a company formerly owned by sanctioned billionaire Oleg Deripaska — against construction company Strabag SE and its main Austrian shareholders.
