The State Consolidation Company, SCC, comprises 16 companies, Minister Bogdanov said further. The SCC has put up many of these companies as collateral for credits, among them LB Bulgaricum, the Institute for Military Research in Kazanlak, Kintex, Avionams. “Kintex is even on the list of companies which cannot be put up for privatization,” Bogdan Bogdanov said. “How can we shut down the State Consolidation Company at a time these companies have been put up as collateral and can be sold off?
