Biographical history
This 1906 long‐term (50 years) sovereign debt was created by the Tsar without the consent of the Duma, and was launched in the face of protests, and so carried a higher risk of repudiation than other Russian bonds, and therefore a higher rate of interest. In the event, the Soviet Central Executive Committee adopted a decree on 21 Jan. 1918, cancelling the coupons and dividends payments of all bonds issued before 25 October 1917.
