MOSCOW, Feb 1 (Reuters) - The share of foreign investors
among holders of Russia's OFZ bonds was 11.1% as of Jan. 1
compared with 13.2% a month earlier, the central bank said on
Wednesday, the lowest share since September 2012.
In January, foreign investors from countries Russia
considers unfriendly have been successfully offloading billions
of roubles worth of local debt holdings, selling the
government's OFZ treasury bonds at a steep discount, two
financial market sources told Reuters last week.
