Pawnshops are required to return any surplus from the sale of unclaimed items that exceed the debt on a microloan. The Bank of Russia has identified that some pawnshops are not informing customers about the sale of their properties and the funds they can receive. The regulator advises that pawnshops notify borrowers of this possibility within 30 calendar days after the sale.
