MOSCOW, September 13 (RIA Novosti) - The Russian Federal Property Fund (RFFI) brought $1 billion to the federal budget as of Monday, the fund's press service said Tuesday.
In all, 288 stockholdings were sold, which amounts to 26.62% of the total number available.
After completing presale arrangements this year, the fund put up 59.43% of all available shareholdings, in comparison with 29.57% as of Sept. 1, 2004.
The service said 196 stockholdings cannot undergo presale arrangements due to a lack of decisions on privatization terms by the Russian Agency for Federal Property Management.
