“During the first six months of this year, we have continued to diversify and successfully develop our key businesses across their markets, focusing on the retail and precious metal mining companies based in Russia that form part of our portfolio. All of our assets have registered a growth in revenue which again confirms the Group´s ability to generate significant and sustainable profits from its ordinary business activities, demonstrating that the Group´s performance is independent of one-off investment deals.  So far this year we have also prepared a number of significant transactions including the initial public offering of NOMOS Bank (Russia) on the London Stock Exchange completed in April and the acquisition of a 100% stake in Eldorado, Russia´s leading retailer in electronics and home appliances, finalized in September. In the first half of 2011 the Group has also taken an important step in expanding the footprint of Home Credit, the consumer finance specialist, into new markets in Asia.”
