Business in Brief

09 March 2006UnknownReserves Rise to Record The country's foreign currency and gold reserves, the world's fifth largest, climbed to a record $195.9 billion as of March 1 as revenue from oil and gas exports increased, the Central Bank said Tuesday. The reserves added $13.7 billion since the start of the year, including $7.5 billion in February alone, the bank said in a statement Tuesday. (Bloomberg) Gazprom Seeks Price Hike Gazprom is asking the government to let it raise gas prices 22 percent next year for Russian consumers, Interfax reported Tuesday, citing an unidentified company official. Gazprom, which supplies 85 percent of the natural gas consumed in Russia, loses money on domestic sales because the government caps prices to subsidize industry and households. In 2005, the company asked for a 22 percent increase for 2006, but got only 11 percent after the government said the higher increase would threaten its inflation target.
