Commenting on the upcoming conference, Boris Ginzburg, Head of Fixed
Income at URALSIB Capital, said:

"We are entering an exciting new era for Russia's fixed income markets
and I expect this year's event to be of particular interest given Russia's
recent $5.5bn sale of sovereign debt - its first return to the international
debt markets in more than ten years.

"The conference will provide a unique forum for issuers, investors and
regulators at a time when the global fixed income markets are watching Russia
with great interest."
