Private health clinics and hospitals company MD Medical Group's London share listing made a smooth start Friday, with the global depositary receipts trading at a 2 percent premium to their issue price of $12.
The firm said it expected the sale of new and existing shares to raise $311 million, assuming an overallotment option was taken up, and it put its market capitalization at about $900 million, with a free float of about 35 percent.
Russia's state-backed private equity fund RDIF, funds of asset manager BlackRock, private equity firm Siguler Guff's Russia Partners, and others spent $50 million in the share offer, according to RDIF.

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.
