Irish Stock Exchange (ISE)
About the Irish Stock Exchange :
The Irish Stock Exchange or 'The Exchange' has a board of twelve directors. The directors divide the board into subcommittees to allow for concentrated efforts surrounding the governance, problems, and operations of the exchanges. There are eleven subcommittees consisting of admissions, appeals, audit, complaints adjudication, disciplinary, investment, listing, rules, senior appointments and remuneration, special products listing, and sponsor application. Each subcommittee team is responsible for handling operations that surround their topic.
As a checks and balance system, the Irish Stock Exchange has developed a list of rules for the securities that apply to both the mainstream and small markets. The rules are :
- corporate securities - equities, preference shares and corporate bonds
- Irish Government bonds
- exchange traded funds (ETF)
- covered warrants
- UCITS & investment funds
- and debt securities.
For the Irish Stock Exchange to list companies publicly there are fees that are charged for company listings, investment funds, specialist debt securities, member fee, registered sponsor's fees, and information products.
The Irish Stock Exchange developed a regular market for the mainstream businesses and a market for small to mid-sized companies, the Irish Enterprise Exchange (IEX). All of the trades are done in Euros based on the Irish currency.
