From November 2 to November 6, 26 defaults were registered in the Russian bond market, including 11 technical and 15 in practice, writes Frank Media Inst. In particular, the Azor-Product company went from a technical default to an actual default, when it failed to return the face value of securities for 100 million rubles due to a lack of funds in the accounts. Against this background, the high-yield bond sector is noticeably cooling: in the nine months of 2026, the volume of issuance amounted to 63.4 billion rubles, which is 21% less than the previous year.
