International depositary Euroclear has resumed settlements for Eurobonds and local shares of non-sanctioned Russian companies. In addition, the list of traded federal loan bonds has been expanded.
Experts note that the resumption of operations with Eurobonds opens up the possibility for investors to transfer securities to Russian depository accounts in Euroclear. The decision to resume work was made possible thanks to the acts adopted in Russia, such as Federal Law No. 292 of July 14, 2022, and Presidential Decree No. 430 of May 20, 2024.
The updated list includes companies such as Gazprom, Gazprom Neft, Lukoil, Nornickel, Mechel, Moscow Exchange, Inter RAO, Magnit, Aeroflot, AFK Sistema, Segezha, MTS, M.Video, Detsky Mir, and Beluga.
According to experts, the resumption of settlements on some Russian securities opens up new opportunities for investors. This means that it is now possible to conduct transactions in the external circuit, as well as carry out depository transfers.
