The Economic Function of a Stock Exchange

Purpose
In recent years, exchanges on both sides of the Atlantic have been extensively reengineered, and their organizational structures have changed from non-profit, membership organizations to for-profit, demutualized organizations. Concurrently, new alternative trading systems have emerged and the traditional functions of broker/dealer firms have evolved. How have these changes affected the mission of a stock exchange and an exchange's ability to deliver on that mission? How has the efficiency of capital raising in the IPO market been impacted? These are among the key questions that the conference will address.
