Russian's Pension Fund might be able to acquire stake in RZD in the future - Yakunin

MOSCOW. June 20 (Interfax) - The president of OJSC Russian Railways (RZD), Vladimir Yakunin, believes that Russia's Pension Fund should be able to acquire a stake in the railway carrier in the future.

"The infrastructural company now is, of course, interesting for pension funds. I believe that the Russian Pension Fund becoming the owner of a share packet in RZD would be a super idea for solving problems in Russia's pension system. Or, say, for simply using the Pension Fund's resources for investing in infrastructural projects. We are making money and will definitely exist as long our state still exists," he told Interfax in an interview.
