The Vienna Stock Exchange<br />
The Vienna Stock Exchange, which was founded in 1771, is<br />
one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> oldest stock exchanges in <strong>the</strong> world, but today,<br />
it is a modern, customer and market-oriented financial service<br />
company. It operates <strong>the</strong> only securities exchange in<br />
Austria. The principal task <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> exchange is to ensure <strong>the</strong><br />
smooth and efficient execution <strong>of</strong> exchange transactions<br />
and to act as an intermediary for market participants by<br />
operating internationally recognised, electronic trading systems.<br />
The Vienna Stock Exchange also makes <strong>the</strong> data and<br />
information on all securities trading in Austria available. The<br />
core business <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> exchange is <strong>the</strong> operation <strong>of</strong> a cash<br />
market (equity market, bond market), a futures market as<br />
well as a market for trading in structured products.<br />
Additional services include data vending, index management<br />
and specialised financial market seminars and training<br />
courses.<br />
