PLUS Markets Group plc has said it looks forward to being able to broaden its coverage of AIM securities without regulatory encumbrance, following a statement by British MP Ed Balls.
Balls noted in February that the HM Treasury hoped to remove outstanding obstacles to open competition in AIM trading. The move is subject to review by the Financial Services Authority.
PMG has said it believes there is clear market demand for a wider range of trading services for AIM securities, noting that over 40 percent of trading activity already takes on PLUS.
