Last week the price of the privatization vouchers remained without changes, so purchase was 5 manat, and sale - 6 manat. Under the President Ilham Aliyev's decree on additional measures for ensuring the use of the state privatization vouchers, the validity period of the vouchers was prolonged until Jan. 1, 2011. This decision was taken due to the fact that about 80 percent of the check is derived from the circulation.
