MOSCOW, April 1 (Reuters) - Moscow Exchange, Russia's

largest bourse, will admit shares in Russia's Yandex ( YNDX ) for trading

on May 15 under the YDEX ticker, it said on Monday.

Yandex ( YNDX ), a technology company that operates an

internet search engine, in February struck a 475-billion-rouble

($5.27 billion) deal after months of negotiations to sell its

assets in Russia at a heavily discounted price due to Kremlin

demands on foreign asset sales.
