Why is this important
The placement of corporate bonds of microfinance organizations expands the choice of savings instruments for private investors. The high yield on such securities makes them an alternative to bank deposits, especially under conditions of limited interest rate differences. At the same time, this increases the significance of assessing the risks and transparency of the issuer for market participants.

Context
