GENERAL: NZX: NZX joins World Federation of Exchanges
Following a vote at the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE) 53rd General
Assembly and Annual Meeting in Mexico City, NZX has today been confirmed as a
member of the WFE.
The WFE is the international trade association of 57 publicly regulated
stock, futures and options exchanges, and is a central reference point for
the securities industry and exchanges.
Candidates are selected for membership following a peer review, and once
selected, member exchanges must adhere to the WFE Membership Criteria.
NZX CEO Tim Bennett commented from the WFE meeting in Mexico City: "We are
delighted to become a member of the World Federation of Exchanges, which is a
valuable international forum to share information and knowledge with other
exchanges around the world."
WFE CEO Huseyin Erkan commented: "We are very happy to re-admit NZX to WFE
membership; NZX will bring great knowledge and expertise to the membership,
and we are looking forward to working with them closely again."
