Government allocates HUF 2.75 bln to MNKH units for new export-promotion tasks
State-owned Hungarian National Trading House Company (MNKH) and its two units will perform various export promotion services under a government decree, and the two units will get HUF 2.75 bln in funding to carry out these tasks under a government resolution, the two documents published in Wednesdayʼs official gazette Magyar Közlöny shows, Hungarian news agency MTI reported.

(Hungarian Trade Development and Promotion), which had HUF 12.2 mln net profit in 2014 and net assets of HUF 15.2 mln at the end of 2014 according to the latest available figures, and MNKH Közép-europai Kereskedelemfejlesztési Hálozat Kft.

MNKH itself had HUF 2.4 bln in losses in 2014 and ended that year with net assets of HUF 6.8 bln.
