has won the "Golden Share 2002" award and the best industrial share
award for last year. #L#
Traditional awards -- the Golden Share of the Year and the best
share awards in several categories -- were presented at the 8th
Financial Forum in Zagreb on Wednesday.
Significant potential for Croatia's development lies in stepping
up the privatisation process, however, that process does not need
to be carried out under any price, said Croatian parliament
president Zlatko Tomcic, who presented the awards.
He stressed the need for drawing up a new privatisation concept and
adopting related laws, especially prior to the privatisation of
large companies.
HAGENA, the agency for the supervision of pension funds, won an
award for launching the pension reform.
The Novigrad-based company Laguna won the Golden Share award for
the best tourist share. It also won a prize for the highest increase
in share price (78.79%) and an award for the highest dividend.
The best financial share and company with the highest rate of
capitalisation last year was Privredna Bank Zagreb.
The Podravka food company won two awards, for the most liquid share
and for best media relations, while the AZ pension fund was awarded
as the best obligatory pension fund.
The Victoria Fund and ICF Fixed Income won awards in various
categories of investment funds. ZB Invest was awarded as the best
fund management company, while the Dom fund was proclaimed the best
closed-end investment fund.
