4th Conference on "Russian Bond Market-2012: Step Into the Future" to be Held on 7-8 June 2012 in Moscow
MOSCOW, May 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
The 4th international conference "Russian Bond Market-2012: Step into the Future" (http://www.bondcongress.uralsibcap.ru) will gather investors and issuers in Moscow on June 7-8. This is one of few international events devoted to the current condition, trends and prospects of the Russian debt market. The conference is hosted by investment company URALSIB Capital.
With the political situation in Russia stabilizing after the presidential election the Russian debt securities market provides better opportunities for foreign players, which leads us to expect this market to grow across the board. Given the new market conditions, the range of questions vital to investors and issuers alike is wider than ever before.
The 4th conference on the "Russian Bond Market-2012: Step into the Future" will be attended by officials of relevant government agencies and the MICEX-RTS exchange, as well as leading Russian and foreign economists and political scientists, debt market experts from major international and Russian investment banks, senior executives of Russian companies, foreign and Russian investors focusing on the Russian debt capital market.
The first day of the conference will be divided into three parts dealing with issues such as the current condition of the Russian bond market, regulatory policy and the prospects of the debt market's development under various macroeconomic scenarios and the risks inherent to them.
The first part will highlight, as part of a business breakfast, the macroeconomic aspects of Russia's debt market and the extent of its integration into the global financial system, examining whether it is prepared to deal with more foreign players. Following changes in legislation this year, a variety of questions are arising regarding market regulation by international and local financial institutions. There have also been quite a few questions related to the merger of the MICEX and RTS into a single exchange for government and corporate bond trading. The role of the Moscow international financial center in developing the domestic debt market also needs to be discussed as a separate issue. Officials from the Russian Finance Ministry, MICEX-RTS and the CBR together with URALSIB's leading experts will identify the most likely changes the market will see in 2012 and whether they will benefit key market participants.
The second part of the conference will be arranged as a roundtable involving the representatives of major economic and political schools who will discuss in an open dialogue the effect of the ongoing political and macroeconomic processes on the debt capital market. The discussion will seek to identify the main factors shaping the current conditions in the market and the extent of risks that may dramatically affect market participants in the future.
The third part of the event will also take the form of a roundtable that will dwell on issues regarding the corporate and municipal debt markets in Russia. The largest issuers and investors, rating agencies as well as leading debt market experts and analysts will also take part in the roundtable.
All of the second day will be devoted to individual meetings between the senior executives of Russian companies, including ones planning to issue securities, with institutional investors. URALSIB Capital's analysts and managers will be available for consultations on a wide range of issues concerned with raising capital and investment opportunities.
