Russian companies have deleveraged considerably, they are cash flow positive, from a bondholders' perspective that's a good thing.

Supply and demand have not been in balance for about a year as far as Russian bonds are concerned so I don't think they will have to pay much new issue premium. A bit to entice investors would be nice but 40-50 bps, probably we won't get that.
