FINAM Holding to Launch New Blog on the Russian Stock Market

June 22, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
At present, the Russian equity market is one of the most undervalued marketplaces in the world with a 6.3. P/E ratio. This factor has drawn in a large number of investors to the Russian market, especially private investors. However, many of them do not have access to a broad enough range of equity research information to operate successfully on the Russian stock market. FINAM’s new blog initiative is specifically designed to help turn this situation around.

Finam’s Internet resource offers investors the chance to stay abreast of key events such as the daily market roundup, major news items and obtain rapid-fire feedback through an online forum, receive cutting-edge advisory from leading industry analysts, portfolio managers and economists on all investment-related issues of interest to the domestic securities market and propose hot topics of their own for discussion. We proceed from the assumption that successful operations on the equity market hinge on the expertise and information awareness about ongoing processes in global and domestic economies and politics, industries and companies, combined with a thorough examination and synthesis of reams of qualitative/quantitative information. The blog is a logical extension of FINAM’s mainstream English corporate website which also showcases a wealth of analytical views on the Russian equity market which are available to our online readers in Dailies, Weeklies and Desk Notes. We are confident that our combined resources will give investors fast-track insight into the status of the Russian stock market and ideally position them to make the right investments in the Russian economy.

FINAM Investment Holding is one of Russia's oldest and most venerable investment holdings. Since its inception in 1994, a time of rough-and-tumble capitalism when the secondary market was just coming to life, FINAM has gradually evolved into a mainstream one-stop brokerage offering the entire range of seamless equity solutions to domestic and foreign investors and established itself as a leading Moscow-based brokerage with regional offices spanning the entire country. At present, the holding comprises FINAM Investment Company (ranked among Russia’s top five investment companies), Finam.ru information agency, management company Finam Management, insurance broker Finam Insurance, bank Megawatt-Bank, the direct investment fund for hi-tech projects, MoneyMail payment system and a number of assets in various industries.
