No deal was concluded with USD/AZN T+1, T+2 and SWAP_USD/AZN due to an absence of appeals by dealers. Appeals were not received on RUB/AZN and EUR/AZN (Ň+1, Ň+2).

Last week the price of the privatization vouchers remained the same, purchase was 8 manats, and sale - 9 manats. Price rise in vouchers is explained by activation of rates of state property privatization through investment competitions. Earlier, the prices were low, as the State Property Committee currently underwent structural transformation.

The validity period of the vouchers will expire on Jan. 1 2010. So far, around 75 percent of vouchers has been derived, and another extension of their validity period remains uncertain.
