Retail investors' assets in brokerage accounts grew to 11 trillion rubles thanks to the influx of new money and the growth in the cost of bonds. The number of clients with more than 10 thousand rubles in their accounts increased to 5.1 million people.
Net contributions from retail investors amounted to 574 billion rubles, almost twice as much as a year earlier. This was influenced by a decrease in deposit rates and market expectations of further easing of monetary policy.
The investment structure has changed slightly. The share of bonds has grown to 35%, the highest since the end of 2020. In anticipation of further rate cuts, investors sought to secure high yields on long-term OFZs and medium-term corporate bonds.
