The experience
The global financial marketplace has become increasingly competitive and fast-moving. By becoming a for-profit commercial organisation, the Exchange formally ended the link between membership and ownership. In doing so, we consolidated our position as a forward-thinking and powerful financial organisation within the international capital markets.
The process

The results
Through the process of demutualisation the Exchange has developed:
- a clearer focus on the needs of its customers
- an improved and more effective approach to decision-making
- the flexibility to respond swiftly to changes in the international business arena
- a fully commercial basis of operation
- an understanding of the needs of its shareholders.
Our offering
We are well placed to share our knowledge of the demutualisation process with other stock exchanges overseas who are considering following the same path. We can apply the same rigorous controls adopted when we negotiated the Exchange’s transition from a mutual organisation to a listed company.
Using our understanding of the steps involved, we approach each stage towards demutualisation from all angles to ensure a successful outcome and to overcome the many challenges presented by such an important move.
The Exchange can offer expert advice and guidance on the physical changes to your organisation and the dynamics involved in being a demutualised exchange.
