According to the data of the Bank of Russia for the first quarter of 2025, retail investors have demonstrated a significant increase in activity in the financial market. 471 billion rubles were deposited into brokerage accounts, which is twice as much as in the same period last year.

Bonds have become the main investment tool for private investors. Their share in investment portfolios increased from 32% to 34% in the quarter, indicating a growing interest in more conservative financial instruments.

The share of foreign assets in portfolios decreased significantly from 18% to 16%. This change occurred against the background of the strengthening of the ruble.At the same time, the volume of frozen assets is less than 16%, since the securities of companies that transferred their registration to Russia are also included in the category of foreign assets.

Investors actively purchased foreign currency and precious metals. The total volume of net purchases amounted to 33 billion rubles, of which 27 billion rubles accounted for the currencies of friendly countries, and 6 billion rubles were invested in gold.
