BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 27. The Baku Stock
Exchange (BSE) and the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE) have
exchanged views on sharing technical expertise and creating a
regional data hub, BSE Management Board Chairman Ruslan Khalilov
said in an interview with Trend.
“We have exchanged views with the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange
(KASE) on sharing technical expertise and creating a regional data
hub. The goal is to process capital market data from Central Asia
and the Middle East on a single platform and present it to regional
and international investors. This project is still at the idea
stage, but cooperation is not ruled out," he emphasized.
Khalilov also noted that experience-sharing is underway with
Uzbekistan and other Central Asian countries.
"These markets are at similar stages of development and are
comparable in terms of technological progress.
Overall, our goal is to transform the Baku Stock Exchange into a
market with high regional and global visibility. This can be
achieved through the integration of BSE-listed instruments into
global brokers’ platforms and through advanced technological
solutions,” he concluded.
The Baku Stock Exchange (BSE), established on February 15, 2000,
is Azerbaijan's only organized primary securities market, providing
a platform for trading, clearing, and settling various securities,
including stocks and bonds. The BSE aims to create a transparent
and efficient capital market, operating as a closed joint-stock
company regulated by the Central Bank of Azerbaijan. It offers
trading hours from 09:30 to 17:00 on weekdays and facilitates
transactions for government securities, corporate bonds, mortgage
bonds, and green bonds.
Recent developments include a brand identity update to emphasize
integrity and sustainability, membership in international
organizations, and milestones such as Azerbaijan's first IPO and
the introduction of remote trading. Investors can participate in
the BSE through licensed investment companies offering diverse
financial instruments.
