According to a notification sent to the Bucharest Stock Exchange yesterday, Eastern Eagle Fund still held 10.85 million shares of SIF Transilvania.
According to Romanian stock market legislation, any investor or group of investors acting in concert are not allowed to hold more than 1% of the shares of any of the five SIFs, and if that threshold is exceeded, the investors in question are required to sell any holdings exceeding 1%, within 3 months.
