The state paid HUF 38.9 billion (EUR 123.5 million) for its share, which it took over through the Corvinus Zrt Fund, stated the Minister for National Economy Mihaly Varga at the press conference after the signing of the agreement, reports the agency MTI. The price was determined with the help of independent experts and market evaluation, he added.
