In reviewing today’s press, it was brought to our attention that there have been several references to our company ALPHA TRUST INVESTMENT SERVICES S.A. in both Greek and foreign media, printed and electronic, as being involved in a transaction concerning the shipping company TORM A/S.

ALPHA TRUST INVESTMENT SERVICES S.A. is domiciled in Greece, it is listed in the Alternative Market of the Athens Exchange, the company’s main activity is the provision of investment services and has no association with the aforementioned shipping company.

Therefore, we refute all published articles, which claim that our company is involved in this transaction.
