The increase in gross liabilities has amounted to 55,06% in the last 12 months and its volume has amounted to UAH 16,029 mln as of 01.10.2012.

2. As of 01.10.2012 cash at the Company’s accounts has amounted to UAH 8,201 mln. But, due to the priority growth rates of liabilities over liquid assets the ratio of cash to liabilities has decreased by 8,08 p.p. in the period from 01.10.2011 to 01.10.2012.
