Cbank says holds several gold deals on Moscow Exchange in 2018

MOSCOW, Mar 6 (PRIME) -- The Russian central bank has held several gold deals on the Moscow Exchange since the start of the year, Larisa Selyutina, director of the securities and commodities department of the authority, said at a conference on Tuesday.

“The Central Bank of Russia puts bids daily (on the order) book, but there were only a few deals at the beginning of the year. The market must say what to change so that would become more active,” Selyutina said.

The official did not disclose the amount of deals, saying the amount did not affect trading volumes, she said.
