The Polymetallic Holding Group Seligdar (hereinafter referred to as the "Holding Group" or "Seligdar") (MOEX: SELG) took part in the Exchange Forum organised by the Moscow Exchange. The event, held in an open dialogue format, featured discussions among participants from the financial system, the business community, government authorities, and representatives of analytical expert circles.

The main topics of the forum included current challenges facing the Russian financial market, as well as strategic initiatives of the Government of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation, and the Bank of Russia. Discussions focused on the need for broader engagement of stock market mechanisms to finance the development of priority economic sectors, which in turn requires increasing market trust among non-qualified retail investors. Coordinated fiscal and monetary policies could provide a signal for the flow of funds from deposits to the stock market.

This topic was further explored during a panel discussion entitled "The Golden Standard of Liquidity: Precious Metals in Times of Crisis", in which Vladimir Kostyukov, Deputy Director for Strategy and Integration of Seligdar PJSC, served as one of the speakers. He spoke about the production results achieved by the Holding Group last year, as well as touching upon the current situation in the precious metals sales market.

Vladimir Kostyukov, Deputy Director for Strategy and Integration of Seligdar PJSC:

"Despite the challenging macroeconomic environment, gold mining companies are able to adapt and find new growth points. Seligdar is actively developing its digital assets business to both find new opportunities for raising investment for its own development and to achieve an optimal price for its products. One such example is the launch of 'gold' DFAs. This type of mechanism is also beneficial for investors because it gives them freedom of action."
