The recently listed Vasseti has now been transferred to Entry Standard in Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

FRANKFURT – OCTOBER 10, 2011 – Vasseti (UK) Plc (Frankfurt: 1VS) which was recently listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FSE”) on the 23rd August 2011, has now been promoted to the Entry Standard.

In a ceremony at the Deutsche Boerse’s trading floor at Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Mr. Ranjeet Singh Sidhu, President and MD of Vasseti, said, “I am grateful for all the support I have received thus far from all the existing customers, employees and shareholders as well as the interest shown by potential investors in our company.”

When asked about Vasseti’s prospect of being listed in the current uncertain market conditions, Mr. Sidhu said, “We may have just listed our company recently, but we certainly are not new kids on the block. We have been in business through several adverse economic situations and it only made us stronger. The testimony is that all our investors have made money from our businesses through all those time and again.”

Mr. William Du, Head of Investor Relation’s team from Vasseti added, “In maintaining the highest investor confidence and trust, Vasseti has chosen the very best of partners to ensure its successful listing and post-listing compliance. We are very pleased to work with Renell Bank and UBJ GmbH as well as all other supporting professionals in making this whole process of promoting Vasseti to FSE’s Entry Standard very systematic and smooth.

Vasseti is led by Mr. Sidhu and the flamboyant but influential Malaysian billionaire, Tan Sri Syed Yusof Tun Syed Nasir, who is known to have Midas touch in business. When asked why list in Germany, Tan Sri Syed Yusof said, “We already have many investors from China, India, the Middle East and now, we would like to have some of our friends from Europe and US to also join us in this journey, where we undertake businesses that not only serve the people but also make decent profit for the shareholders.”

Vasseti’s share closed at €1.21 on Friday and at the time of this press release, the counter seems to attract great buying interest from the investment fraternity.
