Russia Attracts Asian Investors
MOSCOW, Jan 29/ PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Recent developments on the Asian Financial market show a growing interest from Asian Investors towards
Russian investment opportunities.
One of the most-discussed events is the placement of RUSAL shares on the Hong Kong stock exchange
this year. One of the largest producers of aluminum in the world paved a way for other Russian companies to
enter Asian Financial Markets. And it seems that there are mutual benefits for everyone as Hong Kong, a
financial centre, is trying to attract more publicly traded companies from beyond Asia.
The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is leading the trend - representatives of the Forum are
actively increasing cooperation with Far Eastern colleagues as well as planning special discussions around
current market developments at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, which will be held June 17-
The Forum will provide a platform for prominent business people to discuss Asian opportunities and the
collaboration of Russian and Global (including Asian) business. Additionally, the Forum will give opportunities:
- to assess measures taken after the crisis;
- to study key global macroeconomic parameters;
- and to exchange views on elaborating a strategy for further
economic development.
Special attention will be devoted to attracting Asian Investors to Russia and strengthening the ties of Asian
countries with Russia.
