15 years since the start of trading in PJSC Rosseti's shares on the Moscow Exchange
On 16 July 2008, the first trading of PJSC Rosseti's shares (at that time, OJSC FGC UES) took place on the MICEX and RTS stock exchanges (currently PJSC Moscow Exchange). Following the listing reform in 2014, the Company's shares were included in the first (top) level quotation list of the Moscow Exchange. This made it possible to significantly expand the circle of shareholders and investors, as well as bring the Company's corporate governance systems and practices in line with the requirements of the Bank of Russia and the listing rules.
Today, PJSC shares are a highly liquid instrument of the Russian stock market and are included in the main indices of the Moscow Exchange.
Important: the corporate governance of PJSC Rosseti fully meets the requirements of the listing rules for shares admitted to trading in the Level 1 quotation list.
