Russia's Finance Ministry said Tuesday that it would offer 15 billion rubles ($243 million) worth of OFZ treasury bonds at two auctions on Wednesday.
The ministry said it would offer 5 billion rubles of OFZs maturing in January 2025 and 10 billion rubles of OFZs maturing in May 2020.
It has seen better demand for its OFZ auctions in recent weeks after cancelling many treasury bond auctions last year because of what it called "unfavorable market conditions."
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
