The following decision is based on a press release from the Swedish National Debt Office dated November 10, 2008 and the present trading halt in Carnegie. The Swedish National Debt Office has taken over the shares posted as collateral for the loan Carnegie earlier received from the Central Riksbank. This means that the Debt Office now controls Carnegie Investment Bank AB and Max Matthiessen Holding AB.
After not being able to receive valuations from market participants NASDAQ OMX Stockholm has according to rule 5.1 in the “Rules for the Construction and Maintenance of the NOREX Exchanges’ All-Share, Sector and Benchmark indices”, decided to adjust today’s closing price of Carnegie to zero (0) in the index calculation. The decision is conditional that Carnegie is not resumed for trading today.
D. Carnegie & Co AB (CAR, SE0000798829) will remain to zero price in OMX Stockholm indices until further notice.
