Organizer - Troika Dialog Co
Is "organizer" is a widely used word for thise context? If not, what is a better choise?

Answer 1

No -- "organizer" is not the right word.

You have a few words that don't seem to be used correctly.

Because of this -- it is unclear to me who is the actual issuer. I am going to assume that Troika Dialogue Co is the company that is raising funds and that Rus-Bank is acting as the investment bank.

If this is correct, then Troica is the issuer. For large bond issues, there are usually several banks that sell the deal -- they are referred to as The Syndicate -- and the lead bank is called The Lead Manager" or simply "The Manager." they can also be referred to as the investment bank or as the financial intermediary.

Now -- for other things. We don't usually refer to Volume -- we refer to the Par Amount or Face Value that is sold.

Instead of "Duration" you should use "Maturity." The duration of a bond is something very different -- it is a measure of interest rate risk.
