The increase in trading volumes and a number of trades on the Ukrainian Exchange is mostly a result of growing popularity of internet trading.
"The inflow of private investors to the stock market continues", says Oleg Tkachenko, the Ukrainian Exchange CEO. "Over 200 individuals are registered on the Ukrainian Exchange and every third trade is executed with them being a party to it".
The Ukrainian Exchange was established in May 2008 by the major players of the Ukrainian securities market.
The trading was opened on March 26, 2009, and from the very start the Ukrainian Exchange became an important pricing point for the local securities.
At this point over 70 liquid stocks and 17 bonds are available for trading on the Ukrainian Exchange. Over 250 trades are executed on the Ukrainian Exchange daily, representing in terms of volume a significant share of the regulated Ukrainian secondary market.
