He added that “if we look at what is meant by managing a public company and conducting business on the capital market – part of this is that your performance comes under scrutiny every quarter. As a generalization, it can be said that there are many parties in the state of Israel that can learn from the conduct of public companies; whereby not only do policy and strategy have to be reported, but also results have to be presented. As a public exchange, we see considerable importance in economic development and in assisting entrepreneurs and others so that they can continue developing the economy and achieving wondrous things”.
