The extension of the trading program is part of the BVB three pillars development program, one of which being to find ways and mechanisms to innovatively enhance the visibility and accessibility of the capital market. The new trading program is meant to facilitate investors’ access to BVB.

Ludwik Sobolewski, the CEO of BVB, said: “By extending the trading hours, BVB sends a clear message to international community that Romanian capital market took a first step to open to the world. This will be followed by other projects that BVB has in pipeline, as part of a move that could pave our way towards the emerging market status. I take this opportunity to thank Financial Supervisory Authority for their cooperation in the efforts of modernizing the capital market.”
