Gazprombank increased its credit line to Transaero by 1.5 billion rubles ($48.4 million) to 3.25 billion rubles, the lender said Monday.
The airline may buy back as much as 10 percent of its stock from existing shareholders as of Sept. 15, the company said Monday in a regulatory filing.
The buyback is planned to “satisfy the interests of shareholders” that want to profit on their investment, said Konstantin Tyurkin, a Transaero spokesman.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
