Market Services Department

The key activity of the Bank of Russia’s Market Services Department is to support the regulator’s operations in the domestic and external financial markets.

As part of this activity, the Department establishes correspondent relations, ensures the fulfilment of the Bank of Russia’s obligations, monitors the counterparties’ timely execution of obligations under the concluded contracts, and prepares documents for recognising operations in accounting records.

When supporting operations in the domestic and external financial markets, the Market Services Department interacts with credit institutions, trading organisers, clearing houses, depositories, settlement centres of payment systems, and other domestic and external financial market participants.
