Stock exchange set for a revamp

THE Irish Stock Exchange (ISE) has issued a consultation paper that will lead to a shakeup in the way companies are listed in Dublin.

Under the new regime, unveiled yesterday, Irish companies would have the choice of opting for a premium standard listing instead of automatically being required to comply with the higher standards under the proposed premium listing.

The consultation paper follows on from the amended structure in Britain, adopted by the Financial Services Authority in 2010.
