May was another mixed month for exchange groups, as the share values of listed exchanges fell by 1.5 per cent.
The FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index, which aims to reflect market sentiment and is a key indicator of exchanges performance closed at 49,891.9 on 31 May 2018.
The FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index best performer by capital returns in US dollars was the Dubai Financial Market with a 10.2 per cent increase in share price from 30 April 2018 to 31 May 2018. The next best performer was Multi Commodity Exchange of India with a 8.7 per cent increase, followed by Nasdaq with an 4 per cent increase over the same period,
Herbie Skeete, Managing Director, Mondo Visione and also Co-founder of the Index said:
“This month’s excellent performance of the Dubai Financial Market comes on top of a decision by the UAE cabinet allowing 100% foreign ownership in companies. The likelihood of a merger between the Dubai Financial Market and the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange has created encouraging mood music. A merger between the DFM and the ADX would create a strong financial institution that could compete globally.”
The FTSE Mondo Visione Exchanges Index worst performer by capital returns in US dollars was Romania's S.C. Bursa de Valori Bucuresti S.A. with a 19.9 per cent decrease in share price from 30 April 2018 to 31 May 2018. This was followed by Brazil’s B3 SA with a 19.4 per cent decline and Kenya’s Nairobi Securities Exchange with an 18.8 per cent decrease over the same period.
