Fondul Proprietatea loses RON 50 mln from its net profit

Franklin Templeton Investment Management Limited United Kingdom Bucharest Branch, as Sole Administrator and Fund Manager of Fondul Proprietatea, posted an unaudited net profit of RON 1,054.5 million (net profit for the half-year ended 30 June 2013 was RON 514.6 million).

The main factor behind the increase of profit in the first six month of 2014 was the gain on disposal of financial assets.

The NAV is prepared in accordance with local rules issued by the capital market regulator.

The overall upward trend of the Fund’s NAV performance in H1 2014 was correlated with the overall conditions on the BVB, which positively impacted the valuation of the listed holdings in the Fund’s portfolio.
