MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's finance ministry could increase net domestic market borrowing by 200 billion roubles (2.3 billion pounds) in 2018, the RIA news agency reported on Monday, citing Konstantin Vyshkovsky, head of the finance ministry's debt department.

The reason for a possible increase is a stronger rouble, Vyshkovsky said.
