### Most Liquid Corporate Bonds Traded on Moscow Exchange Below is a list of the most liquid corporate bonds currently traded on the Moscow Exchange: - **RSKH Bond Series BO-02-002R (ISIN: RU000A1068R1)**: -0.1% - **Polyus Bond Series PBO-04 (ISIN: RU000A108L81)**: -0.2% - **Borets Capital Bond Series 1R-01 (ISIN: RU000A105ZX2)**: -0.1% - **AFK Sistema Bond Series 14 (ISIN: RU000A101XN7)**: -0.4% It is important to note that all corporate bonds in Russia have ratings. Russia uses a national rating scale where the highest rating is "AAA" and the lowest is "C", with a "D" rating indicating an actual default. Generally, the higher the rating, the more reliable the issuer and the lower the yield on its bonds. - **"AAA"** bonds are the most reliable. These are usually large, systemically important companies, often with state participation. - Bonds rated from **"A-" to "AA+"** are considered reliable and are typically invested in by pension funds and other institutional investors. - Bonds rated from **"BBB-" to "BBB+"** are transitional. These may be reliable companies that are sensitive to adverse market or economic events (e.g., an increase in the key interest rate). - Bonds rated from **"B-" to "BB+"** are high-yield issuers (HY). The risks are high, as is the yield. These can be small or medium-sized businesses operating in risky sectors. - Bonds rated **"CCC" or "D"** are on the brink of default, with maximum risks.
