OMX Nordic exchange in Helsinki, Iceland and Stockholm have decided to adopt post trade anonymity following the results of an extensive customer consultation carried out in the spring of 2007.
The Helsinki and Iceland markets will implement post trade anonymity to all equity-related markets including First North. In Stockholm, this concerns the five most traded shares. Following the introduction of post trade anonymity, the member identity is removed from the market data feed and SAXESS trade ticker. The publication of trades, including member identity, will be available after the close of each trading day.
The post trade anonymity functionality on the Helsinki, Iceland and Stockholm markets will be implemented in conjunction with the next SAXESS release, scheduled for 2 June 2008.
