MRSK Holding, which manages interregional power distributors, plans to list as much as 25 percent of its shares on the London Stock Exchange.
The company sought approval from the Federal Financial Markets Service to have almost 10.3 billion common shares and 519 million preferred shares trade in London, MRSK, also known as IDGC Holding, said Friday. Bank of New York Mellon will be the depositary bank.
The shares could be listed in the fourth quarter, Interfax reported, citing deputy chief executive Alexei Demidov.

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.
