The Top 10 Bulgarian Funds Have Just 9.7% of Assets In Available Cash
The available cash of the 10 biggest funds in Bulgaria amounted to 81.439 mln leva (41.639 mln euros) at the end of January, Profit.bg found out after studying the reports filed by the funds on January 31.
The ten fund's total assets stand at 413 mln leva (211 mln euros), which means their available cash comes to nearly 20% of them. The figure above includes the 10% minimum reserve required by regulations.
We must note that the “available cash” in the reports includes cash, money in deposit accounts and blocked funds.
If we exclude the funds which are not available for investing, the cash left would amount to 40.14 mln leva (20.523 mln euros), or 9.7% of assets.
According to the' financial reports, just three funds have available cash in the amount of more than 20% of assets.
The first of those is Elana Balanced Dollar Fund. It had 8.14 mln leva (4.161 mln euros) in cash at the end of January, which is 25.6% of assets (31.764 mln leva, 16.24 mln euros).
