Qatar Exchange Holds Meetings With Global Investment Institutions

London, February 02 (QNA) - In collaboration with NYSE Euronext, a series of joint meetings were held in London and Paris in the last two days between senior officials from Qatar Exchange and representatives of international investment banks in order to brief them about the benefits of investment in Qatar as an ideal investment destination.
The two sides focussed talks on the connectivity between Qatar Exchange and global markets in London, Paris and New York through the SFTI network. The connectivity is expected to be available soon and during the meetings more details were provided about the benefits and conditions.
QE representatives stated during these meetings that this development is part of the development strategy adopted by Qatar Exchange, and added that the connectivity between QE and the NYSE Euronext network, namely the famous SFTI, will be followed by further steps aiming at introducing Delivery Versus Payment (DVP), diversifying the traded products and increasing liquidity in the market.
International market participants that are connected to NYSE Euronext markets will be able to easily access Qatar Exchange directly though Direct electronic Access (DEA) under the sponsorship of the local brokers.
