  • The syndicated loan market is Russia's biggest source of foreign funds, with $40bn raised last year. But what is exciting bankers in Moscow and London is the prospect of syndicating deals in roubles. As Nick Briggs reports, that could bring a whole range of smaller borrowers into the market.
  • Russia's domestic bond market is growing rapidly, and foreign investors are getting more and more interested.

Companies are reaching the stage of maturity and transparency where they need to — and can — raise fresh equity, and the London market is happy to oblige. But as Laurence Neville and Joanne O'Connor report, Russia's own exchanges are catching up fast.
  • Cracks are beginning to appear in Hugo Chavez’s political and economic assumptions, despite high oil prices and unflagging popularity at home
  • The IMF’s reform tentatively began at a meeting in Washington over the weekend but the gap between developed and developing countries persists.
