Rosselkhozbank could issue a long-term dollar eurobond worth up to $1 billion with maturity of up to 10 years, Bank of Moscow said in a research note Thursday.
"Based on compiled information, the most likely issue amount is seen between $500 million and $1 billion," said Anton Drozdov, an analyst with Bank of Moscow.
On Wednesday, Rosselkhozbank started meeting investors to see whether there is demand for its new subordinated debt issue, the size of which is subject to market conditions, two banking sources said earlier this week.
Last week Rosselkhozbank decided to exercise a call option for a $500 million subordinated issue of loan participation notes raised in September 2006.

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.
