The Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI), part of HM Treasury, announced in December 2023 that £22.7 billion of Russian Assets had been reported as frozen since February 2022 as of October 2023.

This figure is collated from a cumulation of various asset types, of which bank accounts form part, and is a cumulative total of assets reported.
