The Resolution Committee and Winding-Up Board of Glitnir hf. hereby present the Financial Statemens of the bank for the year 2009.
The Resolution Committee and Winding-Up Board of Glitnir hf. (“Glitnir”) are pleased to present the Statement of Assets and Liabilities of Glitnir as at 31 December 2009 (the “Statement”).
The Resolution Committee and Winding-up Board of Glitnir hf. have concluded a series of meetings undertaken to present the bank’s matters.
Meetings were held with representatives of ministries, the Central Bank, FSA and various media. Representatives of Glitnir also appeared for the Trade Committee of the Icelandic parliament, Althingi.
In response to a media query in Iceland, Glitnir’s Resolution Committee and Winding-up Board provide the following summary of aggregate operating expenses for 2009. It is important to bear in mind that the cost of managing the estate is paid by creditors, around 80% of whom are foreign parties. Creditors’ representatives monitor Glitnir’s activities closely and are informed regularly and in detail of the progress of events. In order to maximise the value of the assets of Glitnir’s estate, creditors’ representatives have placed major emphasis on obtaining the advice and assistance of the most capable experts in each area. Due to the scope of the estate and complexity of the tasks to be dealt with, it has naturally proven necessary to seek the assistance of international experts to a major extent. Á íslensku
The Resolution Committee (“RC”) and Winding-Up Board (“WuB”) of Glitnir hf (“Glitnir”) wish to invite creditors who have an interest in participating on the Informal Creditors Committee of Glitnir (“ICC”) to do so by Friday 29th January 2010.
Ownership of Glitnir’s subsidiaries in finance and insurance has now been moved to the holding company GLB Holding. The company is wholly owned by Glitnir. This new organizational structure is in line with the requirements set by the Icelandic Financial Supervisory Authority (FME), which on 30 December last year granted ISB Holding authorisation to take over 95% shareholding in Íslandsbanki. The approval of the Icelandic Competition Authority had previously been given. Á íslensku
