The Vienna Stock Exchange has acquired another French trading member for the cash market - the Paris subsidiary of Instinet Europe Limited. The company’s main office in London has been a member for more than five years and in 2012 ranked 7 by trading volume at the Vienna Stock Exchange. “The enlargement of Instinet‘s membership to include their subsidiary in France further demonstrates that Austria’s capital market also plays an important role internationally,” explained Michael Buhl, member of the management board of the Vienna Stock Exchange.
The international broker is this year’s second new member and the 98th trading member of the Vienna Stock Exchange. A breakdown by country shows that most exchange members come from Austria (38), Germany (19), Great Britain (19) and France (8).
