Russia could dispense with Eurobond road show, meetings in London enough - Siluanov

MOSCOW. May 29 (Interfax) - Russia could place sovereign Eurobonds without a road show and get by with a meeting with investors in London, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov told reporters.

"This year it won't be like last time [when there was a road show]. We'll perhaps do without a road show. We've discussed simply gathering investors in London, without traveling the whole world," Siluanov said, adding that he would attend the meeting.

Siluanov said the timing of the placement had not been decided. "We'll see. June? I don't know," he said.

Siluanov said the government had not yet decided on a list of potential organizers for the offering.

"I think we'll decide on the banks right now, at the end of May, and then we'll see," Siluanov said.
