Notes to the table

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

document, published at: http://www.kase.kz/mix/rsp.pdf in Russian and at
