Russian c.bank shifts boundaries of rouble's trading band by 5 kopecks

MOSCOW, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Russia's central bank has shifted the boundaries of its floating rouble corridor by 5 kopecks, the bank said on Wednesday, following market interventions to curb the pace of the currency's decline.

As of Oct. 7, the new corridor extended from 35.65 to 44.65 to a dollar euro basket, compared with 35.60 to 44.60 previously.
