Last week the price of the privatization vouchers dramatically increased by 67 percent. From Jan. 26 the price of vouchers increased from 14-15 manat to 25-26 manat. The purchase of vouchers was implemented by 25 manat, and sale - 26 manats. On Jan. 30, price of a privatization voucher decreased by 1 manat.
Such changes in the privatization vouchers market are due to intensified privatization of state enterprises, particularly closed subscription for discount sale of 15 percent to the personnel in every enterprise. Another reason for rising prices is speculative factor on the black market of vouchers.
The validity period of the vouchers will expire on Jan. 1 2010.
