| The Bratislava Stock Exchange (BCPB) is celebrating 35 years since its establishment. During that time, it has executed trades worth 312 billion euros. BCPB has played a significant role in the process of economic transformation and capital market development. TASR was informed about this by Viera Dvořáková from BCPB external communications.
According to the exchange, the anniversary of its establishment represents a significant milestone in the development of the Slovak capital market. The first trade was with a bond from Všeobecná úverová banka (VÚB). "The first simulated trading took place a few months later, in December 1991. The historic moment was April 6, 1993, when the first trade was carried out - it was a trade with a VÚB bond," BCPB explained.
The exchange was headed by eight general directors who participated in its development at various stages of capital market development. During its existence, the exchange, according to its own words, gradually introduced new tools, technological solutions and trading rules. Significant steps included, for example, the introduction of the Slovak SAX stock index in 1994, the launch of online trading and the implementation of European financial market legislation, she added.
"The Slovak capital market has the potential to play a greater role in financing domestic companies. Our ambition is to create conditions for its further development and for broader investor involvement. The natural direction for the future is closer regional cooperation, better connections with the European capital market and creating opportunities for issuers and investors," said Lukáš Bonko, CEO of BCPB.
The stock exchange is a member of the Federation of European Stock Exchanges and is involved in a cooperation project of eight stock exchanges under the auspices of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, aimed at developing capital markets in the region, deepening the interconnection of market infrastructures and strengthening cooperation between European stock exchanges and central depositories, she explained.
BCPB is also part of the EuroCTP project and is one of its shareholders. Its aim is to create a single European trading overview that will improve the availability of price and volume data, increase market transparency and support more informed investment decisions.odkaz na stránku |
