ASBN replaced TEBN (9th position in September) and became a newcomer
of the "liquid ten".
ASBN grew in liquidity rating on mass purchase of mentioned securities by
one of contractors (91.1 % of the total volume of deals with ASBN). It is
likely to be connected with known events on LSE, when Seimar Alliance
Financial Corporation, the major shareholder of Alliance Bank JSC
repurchased GDR at $5 m. The disseminated message of SAFC said
decreasing of GDR quotations of Alliance Bank on LSE is a consequence of
speculative activity of foreign investors and doesn't reflect real financial
status of the bank.

share trades on KASE in ten months of 2008. Stake of these "ten" in total
turnover of shares market of KASE made 59.7 %. During this period 74

Notes
The rating is based on liquidity indicator (Kl), which is calculated for each
share on a specified period. Positions are rated by sorting shares in
descending order of Kl (the higher Kl, the higher liquidity and position in the
rating). The first position in the rating corresponds to the highest Kl value.
Description of liquidity indicator calculation methods is available in the
proper section of the document, published at:
http://www.kase.kz/mix/rsp.pdf
in Russian and at
http://www.kase.kz/eng/mix/rsp.pdf in English.
IRBIS agency draws attention to the fact that while calculating the
liquidity indicator, only data on deals made in KASE secondary market
sector (including special trading floor of the regional financial center of
Almaty) by one of open trade methods are taken into account.
"p" letter in the end of the symbol means preferred shares, other letters -
common shares.
