MOSCOW (Reuters) -Moscow Exchange, Russia's largest bourse, suspended trading on the stock market for almost two hours on Tuesday, due to what it described as a hardware error on its main server.

Trading was halted at 1:58 p.m. Moscow time (1058 GMT) and was set to resume at 1245 GMT, the exchange said.

"According to the exchange's procedures, in case of such an error occurring, a switch to the backup server is carried out, which takes a little over an hour," the exchange said in a statement, apologising for any inconvenience caused.

Trading on Moscow Exchange's currency, derivatives and precious metals markets was unaffected, it said.
