IRB – Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (Author)
A 6 September 1998 Reuters article states
that Nadejda (Hope) is one of the eight privatisation funds fined
by the Bulgaria' Securities and Stock Exchanges Commission (SSEC)
for "using misleading information in their advertising campaigns
aimed at attracting more subscribers to their funds." Additional
information on Nadejda in Bulgaria could not be found among the
sources consulted by the Research Directorate.
This Response was prepared after
researching publicly accessible information currently available to
the Research Directorate within time constraints. This Response is
not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any
particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Please find below the
list of additional sources consulted in researching this
Information Request.
