The plan, proposed by the Russian government through U.N.-brokered negotiations, would allow Agricultural Bank of Russia to set up a subsidiary to process payments related to grain exports, according to five people familiar with the matter. The new entity will be allowed to use the SWIFT financial messaging system, which was closed to some of Russia’s largest banks following the outbreak of fighting between Russia and Ukraine last year.
