Brazil's Embratel expects to be listed on NYSE

Reuters, Wednesday, November 04, 1998 at 10:42

RIO DE JANEIRO, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Brazil's privatized
long-distance telephone carrier Embratel (SAO:EBTP4)(SAO:EBTP3)
said on Wednesday it expects to start trading on the New York
Stock Exchange (NYSE) together with 11 other firms spun off of
Telebras (NYSE:TBR).
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday
approved NYSE trading of 11 of the 12 telephone units carved
out of former telephone giant Telebras, but left out Embratel.
The SEC gave no reason for its exclusion of Embratel.
Embratel said on Wednesday it does not need SEC approval to
trade as it will inherit the registration number of the former
Telebras's American Depositary Receipts (NYSE:TBR), which still
trade on the NYSE.
"Embratel was considered the successor of Telebras'
registration number with the SEC, and that is why it did not
get a new registration yesterday," Embratel's spokeswoman said.
