In March, RCB Bank struck a deal with Hellenic Bank for the sale of a performing loan portfolio valued up to 556 million euros. The ECB permitted that deal but restricted the rest of the bank's business.
In a statement on Thursday, the ECB said the decision follows the completion of RCB's voluntary phasing out of its banking operations.
RCB started operations in 1995 that were mainly geared towards the Russian business community on the island. In March it said would cease new business with clients.
