Russia's top gold miner Polyus Gold has raised $750 million via a debut seven-year eurobond issue, with a yield of 5.625 percent, an executive with one of the bookrunners said.
"The order book was more than two times subscribed despite market volatility and a fall in gold prices," Andrei Solovyev, Global Head of Debt Capital Markets at VTB Capital, told reporters late last week.
The other bookrunners and lead-managers of the issue were J.P. Morgan and Societe Generale.

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.
