What Is There To Know About Lahore Stock Exchange?

The beginning of the Lahore Stock Exchange. Lahore Stock Exchange was founded in October 1970 in the busy area of Bank Square in Lahore, Pakistan. It was formed under the Securities and Exchange Ordinance in Pakistan. There were originally 83 Punjab members but 25 years later, in 2004, there were a total of 650 members. The Lahore Stock Exchange has in fact become so popular that they have now opened 2 further branches in Faisalabad and Sialkot. At first the Lahore Stock Exchange had very few active members and there were only two opportunities to trade; the first was to trade through the Karachi Stock Exchange or trade only in Bonus, Vouchers and Bonds. This was mainly due to constraints from the size of the building and in just under 20 years, the Lahore Stock Exchange was moved to its present location at 19-Khayaban-e-Aiwan-e-Iqbal, Lahore. Since then both the industry of Pakistan and the Stock Exchange itself have gone from strength to strength, due to the coincidental time of the move; the relocation coincided with the Pakistan government accepting a market economy and heightened deregulation.

Business has seen a steady boom, a new Management Information System has been introduced and electronic clearing house activities as well as electronic purchasing are now being used.

Day trading only began at the Lahore Stock Exchange back in 1993 and the owners of the stock exchange along with the Construction Committee now aim to transform it from a local organization into a global player in the stock market. They began to implement large scale modernization in 1994 in order to keep up with the growth of the stock exchange and so far they have completed this admirably; they aim to keep expanding and improving until they
