Russia ready to open Alrosa’s books for share placement – sources

Russia plans to open State-controlled diamond producer Alrosa’s books later on Wednesday for a share placement in Moscow as part of the government’s privatisation programme, two financial sources and a source familiar with the process said. The Russian government has previously said it aims to get more than 60-billion roubles ($928-million) from selling 10.9% of its 44% stake in Alrosa.
