Why RUB markets important
Plans of Russian political and economic authorities: • Concept of Moscow as International Financial Center
(adopted) to compete with Dubai, Shanghai, Mumbai; • Strategy of development of Russian financial market till
2020 – focus on securities, forwards and derivatives instruments, clearing infrastructure:
• RUB to become international (regional) reserve currency
Shortcomings of above programs:• Focus on the securities markets• Negligence of RUB settlements • Access for foreigners?

Prospects of RUB as international currencyInfrastructural prerequisites for global RUB
trading (tasks for Russian authorities, CBR):
1. Promotion of RUB instruments in global electronic trading platforms (such as EBS, Reuters, Bloomberg etc.)
2. To remove obstacles in RUB clearing and settlements for international participants:- RTGS (BESP of CBR)
- CLS Bank clearing currency (next ZAR, MXN)
3. Monitor RUB global trading volumes
