According to Federal Service for Financial Markets' press release, it filed a draft of financial market strategy for 2006-2008 to the government. The main tasks stipulated in the document include reduction of market risk and upgrading financial infrastructure. This will allow to attract the investors, who already deal with Russian securities and to make them operate on the domestic market. The draft assumes that the capitalization of stock market is going to increase from 40% of GDP to 60% within the 2006-2008 period.

The capitalization of corporate bonds and notes is estimated to double and to amount to 3% of the country's GDP. Investment funds' capitalization is seen to rise from 1% to 5% of GDP. What is more, the share of market operations with domestic shares on the local exchanges is expected to grow to 70%, which is going to allow the companies to attract at least 20% of the overall value of the capital investments. Moreover, the strategy notes the increasing gap between the Pension Fund and the state debt, and warns about excess liquidity of the Pension Fund. The document proposes to expand the possibilities of investment of the Pension Fund to municipal, regional bonds and corporate bonds.
