/CORRECTED/ In November of 2003 volume of CS purchase and sale deals at KASE increased 1.9 times to $105.3 m
/IRBIS, December 3, 03, resent in accordance with backdated changing of status of separate deals in KASE's trade system for November 27 and 28, as the result volumes of transactions, on which settlements were made, changed; corresponding news for December 2 is annulled/ - In November of 2003 at Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE) 203 deals were made in corporate securities (CS) in all sectors of the market (excluding repo- transactions sector) for a total of KZT15.5 bn or $105.3 m at current rate of the Exchange effective on the day the deals were made. In comparison with October of 2003 volume of transactions increased by $50.8 m (KZT7.4 bn.) or 1.93 times (1.92 times in terms of tenge). Relative to November of 2002 volume of transactions rose by $85.6 m. (KZT12.4 bn.) or 5.4 times (5.1 times in terms of tenge).
Structure of CS turnover at KASE in November is presented in the following way: 88.8% of all conducted deals volume ($93,509.6 th.) fell to the stake of purchase and sale sector's transactions, stake of primary floatation transactions was 11.2% ($11,822.7 th.). No deals were made in SBS sector. For comparison, the structure of stock exchange's CS sector in 2002 was characterized by the following indicators: 5.5% of transactions volume fell to the share of primary floatation; to the share of SBS - 33.1%; to the share of purchase and sale sector - 61.4%.
Judging on results of the month it's possible to say that November of 2003 was notable to stock exchange's CS market. Purchase and sale deals turnover reached the record high level for the whole exchange's history. Increasing of general turnover of the sector relative to October was achieved in great degree due to this circumstance, and also due to rather big amount of primary floatations.
Appearance of many new securities at the CS market in October and November is the major reason of its activation. Investors, having satisfied their need in long GS offered by the Ministry of finance in big volumes in September and October switched to corporate bonds. There was no lack in them. Only in November following persons came to KASE with new borrowings: Alliance Bank OJSC (ASBNb2), Astana-finance OJSC (ASFIb3), Development Bank of Kazakhstan JSC (BRKZe2), Bank TuranAlem JSC (BTASb3), Eurasian bank JSC (EUBNb1). Due to it capitalization of corporate bonds market rose within the month by $187.4 m. or by 8.8% that allows speaking about some "bonded mini boom", which was in Kazakhstan in the fourth quarter of 2003.
Banks' bonds issue in the end of the year (they are mainly subordinate securities) is understandable. This is the simplest way for banks to increase shareholders equity under conditions of severe competition. The same competition, but at housing crediting market, makes non-banking financial institutions (Kazakhstan Mortgage Company CJSC, Astana-finance OJSC) increase mortgage bonds issue volume.
But there is also another factor, whose effect at present makes issuers hurry to pass listing procedure at KASE. According to stock exchange's normative base, KASE accepts documents for listing without reports of the "big four" auditors in accordance with issuer's financial statement for the past year till March 31. That's why the fourth and the first quarters of are characterized by the biggest number of applications for passing listing. New securities are always welcomed by Kazakhstan investors, which did not have a great variety of instruments for their investments.
Thus, primary floatations of bonds, and also secondary redistribution of securities concerned with restructuring of investors' portfolios significantly cheered up Kazakhstan market of corporate debt in November. Definite (but not the key one) and positive role in increasing of CS turnover was also played by coming of State accumulative pension fund CJSC (Almaty) to corporate finance market. And prohibition for purchasing of securities at the expense of pension assets of international bonds SPV (as well as obligation to sell bonds, which are in the portfolio, within 6 months) has not impacted upon the market yet. It follows from the table below that volume of transactions in bonds SPV did not have the key role at KASE in November - isolated deals in rather temperate volumes were made in them.
Following are the tables, which show stock exchange's CS market in November of 2003.
