In February 2002 volume of CS deals at KASE fell by 16.2% down to $35.7m against January 2002
/IRBIS, Mar 1, 02/ - In February 2002 at the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE) 95 deals were made in corporate securities in all sectors of the market for a total of $35,668.5 th. (KZT5,420.1m at current rate of the Exchange effective on the day the deals were made on). In comparison with previous month sector's turnover decreased by $6,870.9 th (KZT1,020.2m) or 16.2% (15.8% in tenge). Relative to February 2001 transactions volume rose by $22,854.6 th (KZT3,558.6m) or by 2.8 times (2.9 times in tenge).
As IRBIS analysts assumed the market volume continues to be negatively influenced by a prohibition from January 11 on making deals in counter repo with participation of pension assets via only open trades method. A possibility of trade in automatic repo sector using CS will be given to traders only from March 16 and volumes of the market have to restore.
Low issue activity of Kazakhstan issuer has had a bad influence. Only in the last decade of February new issues of corporate bonds appeared in the market (Development Bank of Kazakhstan OJSC and SB Alfa-Bank OJSC) adapted to requirements of Civil Code of the RK. However, trades on these bonds haven't been opened yet and the issuers are only negotiating with investors concerning rice parameters of the initial floatation terms.
Structure of CS turnover at KASE in February is presented in the following form: sales and purchases transaction account for 74.9% of total made deals ($26,715.9 th.), repo transactions - 25.1% ($8,952.5 th.). In the sector of state block of shares sale and primary floatation no deals were made. For comparison, a structure of CS turnover in 2001 was characterized with the following parameters: initial floatation - 9.2# of transactions volume; SBS sector - 12.9%; sale-purchase sector - 40.3%; repo sector - 37.6%.
