Stock Exchanges
A stock exchange is a form of exchange which provides services for stock
brokers and traders to trade stocks, bonds, and other securities. Stock exchanges also
provide facilities for issue and redemption of securities and other financial instruments,
and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. Securities traded on a
stock exchange include shares issued by companies, unit trusts, derivatives, pooled
investment products and bonds.
To be able to trade a security on a certain stock exchange, it must be listed there. Usually,
there is a central location at least for record keeping, but trade is increasingly less linked
to such a physical place, as modern markets are electronic networks, which gives them
advantages of increased speed and reduced cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is
by members only.
The initial offering of stocks and bonds to investors is by definition done in the primary
market and subsequent trading is done in the secondary market. A stock exchange is
often the most important component of a stock market. Supply and demand in stock
markets are driven by various factors that, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks
(see stock valuation).
There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via the stock exchange itself, nor must stock
be subsequently traded on the exchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange or over-
the-counter. This is the usual way that derivatives and bonds are traded. Increasingly,
stock exchanges are part of a global market for securities.

History of Stock Exchanges
Securities markets took centuries to develop.[1]
The idea of debt dates back to the ancient
world, as evidenced for example by ancient Mesopotamian clay tablets recording
interest-bearing loans. There is little consensus among scholars as to when
corporate stock was first traded. Some see the key event as the Dutch East India
Company's founding in 1602, while others point to earlier developments. Economist
Ulrike Malmendier of the University of California at Berkeley argues that a share market
existed as far back as ancient Rome.
In the Roman Republic, which existed for centuries before the Empire was founded, there
were societates publicanorum, organizations of contractors or leaseholders who
performed temple-building and other services for the government. One such service was
the feeding of geese on the Capitoline Hill as a reward to the birds after their honking
warned of a Gallic invasion in 390 B.C. Participants in such organizations had partes or
shares, a concept mentioned various times by the statesman and orator Cicero. In one
speech, Cicero mentions "shares that had a very high price at the time." Such evidence,
in Malmendier's view, suggests the instruments were tradable, with fluctuating values
based on an organization's success. The societas declined into obscurity in the time of the
emperors, as most of their services were taken over by direct agents of the state.
Tradable bonds as a commonly used type of security were a more recent innovation,
spearheaded by the Italian city-states of the late medieval and earlyRenaissance periods.
In 1171, the authorities of the Republic of Venice, concerned about their war-depleted
treasury, drew a forced loan from the citizenry. Such debt, known asprestiti, paid 5
percent interest per year and had an indefinite maturity date. Initially regarded with
suspicion, it came to be seen as a valuable investment that could be bought and sold. The
bond market had begun.
From 1262 to 1379, Venice never missed an interest payment, solidifying the credibility
of the new instruments. Other Italian city-states such as Florence and Genoa became
bond issuers as well, often as a means of paying for warfare. Bonds were traded widely in
Italy and beyond, a business facilitated by bankers such as the Medicis.
War between Venice and Genoa resulted in suspension of prestiti interest payments in
the early 1380s, and when the market was restored, it was at a lower interest rate.
Venice's bonds traded at steep discounts for decades thereafter. Other blows to financial
stability resulted from the Hundred Years War, which caused monarchs of France and
8. 8
England to default on debts to Italian banks, and the Black Death, which ravaged much of
Europe. Still, the idea of debt as a tradable investment endured.
As with bonds, the concept of stock developed gradually. Some scholars place its origins
as far back as ancient Rome. Partnership agreements dividing ownership into shares date
back at least to the 13th century, again with Italian city-states in the vanguard. Such
arrangements, however, typically extended only to a handful of people and were of
limited duration, as with shipping partnerships that applied only to a single sea voyage.
The forefront of commercial innovation eventually shifted from Italy to northern Europe.
The Hanseatic League, an alliance of mercantile cities such asBruges and Antwerp,
operated counting houses to expedite trade.
By the late 1500s, British merchants were experimenting with joint-stock companies
intended to operate on an ongoing basis; one such was theMuscovy Company, which
sought to wrest trade with Russia away from Hanseatic dominance. The next big step was
in Amsterdam. In 1602, the Dutch East India Company was formed as a joint-stock
company with shares that were readily tradable. The stock market had begun.
The Dutch East India Company, formed to build up the spice trade, operated as a colonial
ruler in what's now Indonesia and beyond, a purview that included conducting military
operations against recalcitrant natives and competing colonial powers. Control of the
company was held tightly by its directors, with ordinary shareholders not having much
influence on management or even access to the company's accounting statements.
However, shareholders were rewarded well for their investment. The company paid an
average dividend of over 16 percent per year from 1602 to 1650. Financial innovation in
Amsterdam took many forms. In 1609, investors led by one Isaac Le Maireformed
history's first bear syndicate, but their coordinated trading had only a modest impact in
driving down share prices, which tended to be robust throughout the 17th century. By
the 1620s, the company was expanding its securities issuance with the first use of
corporate bonds.
The Dutch West India Company was formed in 1621, bringing a new issuer to the
burgeoning securities market. Amsterdam's growth as a financial center survived the tulip
mania of the 1630s, in which contracts for the delivery of flower bulbs soared wildly and
then crashed. New techniques and instruments proliferated for securities as well as
commodities, including options, repos and margin trading.[2]

Joseph de la Vega, also known as Joseph Penso de la Vega and by other variations of his
name, was an Amsterdam trader from a Spanish Jewish family and a prolific writer as well
as a successful businessman in 17th-century Amsterdam. His 1688 book Confusion of
Confusions explained the workings of the city's stock market. It was the earliest book
about stock trading, taking the form of a dialogue between a merchant, a shareholder
and a philosopher, the book described a market that was sophisticated but also prone to
excesses, and de la Vega offered advice to his readers on such topics as the
unpredictability of market shifts and the importance of patience in investment.
The year that de la Vega published also brought an event that helped spread financial
techniques and talent from Amsterdam to London. This was the "glorious revolution," in
which Dutch rulerWilliam of Orange also ascended to England's throne. William sought to
modernize England's finances to pay for its wars, and thus the kingdom's first government
bonds were issued in 1693 and the Bank of England was set up the following year. Soon
thereafter, English joint-stock companies began going public.
London's first stockbrokers, however, were barred from the old commercial center known
as the Royal Exchange, reportedly because of their rude manners. Instead, the new trade
was conducted from coffee houses along Exchange Alley. By 1698, a broker named John
Castaing, operating out of Jonathan's Coffee House, was posting regular lists of stock and
commodity prices. Those lists mark the beginning of the London Stock Exchange.
One of history's greatest financial bubbles occurred in the next few decades. At the center
of it were the South Sea Company, set up in 1711 to conduct English trade with South
America, and the Mississippi Company, focused on commerce with France's Louisiana
colony and touted by transplanted Scottish financier John Law, who was acting in effect
as France's central banker. Investors snapped up shares in both, and whatever else was
available. In 1720, at the height of the mania, there was even an offering of "a company
for carrying out an undertaking of great advantage, but nobody to know what it is."
By the end of that same year, share prices were collapsing, as it became clear that
expectations of imminent wealth from the Americas were overblown. In London,
Parliament passed the Bubble Act, which stated that only royally chartered companies
could issue public shares. In Paris, Law was stripped of office and fled the country. Stock
trading was more limited and subdued in subsequent decades. Yet the market survived,
and by the 1790s shares were being traded in the young United States.

On February 8, 1971, NASDAQ, the world's first electronic stock exchange, started its
operations.
Role of Stock Exchanges
Stock exchanges have multiple roles in the economy. This may include the following:
Raising capital for businesses
The Stock Exchange provide companies with the facility to raise capital for expansion
through selling shares to the investing public.
Common forms of capital raising
Besides the borrowing capacity provided to an individual or firm by the banking system,
in the form of credit or a loan, there are four common forms of capital raising used by
companies and entrepreneurs. Most of these available options, might be achieved,
directly or indirectly, involving a stock exchange.
Going public
Capital intensive companies, particularly high tech companies, always need to
raise high volumes of capital in their early stages. By this reason, the public market
provided by the stock exchanges, has been one of the most important funding
sources for many capital intensive startups. After the 1990s and early-2000s hi-
tech listed companies' boom and bust in the world's major stock exchanges, it has
been much more demanding for the high-tech entrepreneur to take his/her
company public, unless either the company already has products in the market and
is generating sales and earnings, or the company has completed advanced
promising clinical trials, earned potentially profitable patents or conducted market
research which demonstrated very positive outcomes. This is quite different from
the situation of the 1990s to early-2000s period, when a number of companies
(particularly Internet boom and biotechnology companies) went public in the most
prominent stock exchanges around the world, in the total absence of sales,
earnings and any well-documented promising outcome. Anyway, every year a
number of companies, including unknown highly speculative and financially
unpredictable hi-tech startups, are listed for the first time in all the major stock
exchanges - there are even specialized entry markets for this kind of companies
11. 11
or stock indexes tracking their performance (examples include theAlternext, CAC
Small, SDAX, TecDAX, or most of the third market companies).
Limited partnerships
A number of companies have also raised significant amounts of capital
through R&D limited partnerships. Tax law changes that were enacted in 1987 in
the United States changed the tax deductibility of investments in R&D limited
partnerships. In order for a partnership to be of interest to investors today, the
cash-on-cash return must be high enough to entice investors. As a result, R&D
limited partnerships are not a viable means of raising money for most companies,
specially hi-tech startups.
Venture capital
A third usual source of capital for startup companies has been venture capital. This
source remains largely available today, but the maximum statistical amount that
the venture company firms in aggregate will invest in any one company is not
limitless (it was approximately $15 million in 2001 for a biotechnology
company).[5]
At those level, venture capital firms typically become tapped-out
because the financial risk to any one partnership becomes too great.
Corporate partners
A fourth alternative source of cash for a private company is a corporate partner,
usually an established multinational company, which provides capital for the
smaller company in return for marketing rights, patent rights, or equity. Corporate
partnerships have been used successfully in a large number of cases.
Mobilizing savings for investment
When people draw their savings and invest in shares (through a IPO or the issuance of
new company shares of an already listed company), it usually leads torational allocation
of resources because funds, which could have been consumed, or kept in
idle deposits with banks, are mobilized and redirected to help companies' management
boards finance their organizations. This may promote business activity with benefits for
several economic sectors such as agriculture,commerce and industry, resulting in
stronger economic growth and higher productivity levels of firms. Sometimes it is very
difficult for the stock investor to determine whether or not the allocation of those funds
12. 12
is in good faith and will be able to generate long-term company growth, without
examination of a company's internal auditing.
Facilitating company growth
Companies view acquisitions as an opportunity to expand product lines, increase
distribution channels, hedge against volatility, increase its market share, or acquire other
necessary business assets. A takeover bid or a merger agreement through the stock
market is one of the simplest and most common ways for a company to grow by
acquisition or fusion.
Profit sharing
Both casual and professional stock investors, as large as institutional investors or as small
as an ordinary middle class family, through dividends and stock priceincreases that may
result in capital gains, share in the wealth of profitable businesses. Unprofitable and
troubled businesses may result in capital losses for shareholders.
Corporate governance
By having a wide and varied scope of owners, companies generally tend to
improve management standards and efficiency to satisfy the demands of these
shareholders, and the more stringent rules for public corporations imposed by public
stock exchanges and the government. Consequently, it is alleged thatpublic
companies (companies that are owned by shareholders who are members of the general
public and trade shares on public exchanges) tend to have better management records
than privately held companies (those companies where shares are not publicly traded,
often owned by the company founders and/or their families and heirs, or otherwise by a
small group of investors).
Despite this claim, some well-documented cases are known where it is alleged that there
has been considerable slippage in corporate governance on the part of some public
companies. The dot-com bubble in the late 1990s, and the subprime mortgage crisis in
2007-08, are classical examples of corporate mismanagement. Companies
like Pets.com (2000), Enron
Corporation (2001), One.Tel (2001), Sunbeam (2001), Webvan (2001), Adelphia (2002),
MCI WorldCom (2002), Parmalat (2003), American International Group (2008), Bear
Stearns (2008), Lehman Brothers (2008), General Motors (2009) and Satyam Computer
Services (2009) were among the most widely scrutinized by the media.
13. 13
However, when poor financial, ethical or managerial records are known by the stock
investors, the stock and the company tend to lose value. In the stock exchanges,
shareholders of underperforming firms are often penalized by significant share price
decline, and they tend as well to dismiss incompetent management teams.
Creating investment opportunities for small investors
As opposed to other businesses that require huge capital outlay, investing in shares is
open to both the large and small stock investors because a person buys the number of
shares they can afford. Therefore the Stock Exchange provides the opportunity for
small investors to own shares of the same companies as large investors.
Government capital-raising for development projects
Governments at various levels may decide to borrow money to finance infrastructure
projects such as sewage and water treatment works or housing estates by selling another
category of securities known as bonds. These bonds can be raised through the Stock
Exchange whereby members of the public buy them, thus loaning money to the
government. The issuance of such bonds can obviate the need, in the short term, to
directly tax citizens to finance development—though by securing such bonds with the full
faith and credit of the government instead of with collateral, the government must
eventually tax citizens or otherwise raise additional funds to make any regular coupon
payments and refund the principal when the bonds mature.
Barometer of the economy
At the stock exchange, share prices rise and fall depending, largely, on market forces.
Share prices tend to rise or remain stable when companies and theeconomy in general
show signs of stability and growth. An economic recession, depression, or financial
crisis could eventually lead to a stock market crash. Therefore the movement of share
prices and in general of the stock indexes can be an indicator of the general trend in the
economy.
Speculations
The stock exchanges are also fashionable places for speculation. In a financial context, the
terms "speculation" and "investment" are actually quite specific. For instance, although
the word "investment" is typically used, in a general sense, to mean any act of placing
money in a financial vehicle with the intent of producing returns over a period of time,
14. 14
most ventured money—including funds placed in the world's stock markets—is actually
not investment but speculation.

Listing Requirements
Listing requirements are the set of conditions imposed by a given stock exchange upon
companies that want to be listed on that exchange. Such conditions sometimes include
minimum number of shares outstanding, minimum market capitalization, and minimum
annual income.
Requirements by stock exchange
Companies must meet an exchange's requirements to have their stocks and shares listed
and traded there, but requirements vary by stock exchange:
New York Stock Exchange: To be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) a
company must have issued at least a million shares of stock worth $100 million and
must have earned more than $10 million over the last three years
NASDAQ Stock Exchange: To be listed on the NASDAQ a company must have issued at
least 1.25 million shares of stock worth at least $70 million and must have earned
more than $11 million over the last three years.
London Stock Exchange: The main market of the London Stock Exchange has
requirements for a minimum market capitalization (£700,000), three years of audited
financial statements, minimum public float (25 per cent) and sufficient working
capital for at least 12 months from the date of listing.
Bombay Stock Exchange: Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) has requirements for a
minimum market capitalization of 25 crore (US$4.99 million) and minimum public
float equivalent to 10 crore (US$2 million)
Ownership
Stock exchanges originated as mutual organizations, owned by its member stock brokers.
There has been a recent trend for stock exchanges to demutualize, where the members
16. 16
sell their shares in an initial public offering. In this way the mutual organization becomes
a corporation, with shares that are listed on a stock exchange. Examples are Australian
Securities Exchange (1998), Euronext (merged with New York Stock
Exchange), NASDAQ (2002), the New York Stock Exchange (2005), Bolsas y Mercados
Españoles, and the São Paulo Stock Exchange (2007). The Shenzhen and Shanghai stock
exchanges can been characterized as quasi-state institutions insofar as they were created
by government bodies in China and their leading personnel are directly appointed by
theChina Securities Regulatory Commission.
Indian Stock Markets
Stock markets refer to a market place where investors can buy and sell stocks. The price
at which each buying and selling transaction takes is determined by the market forces
(i.e. demand and supply for a particular stock).
Let us take an example for a better understanding of how market forces determine
stock prices. ABC Co. Ltd. enjoys high investor confidence and there is an anticipation of
an upward movement in its stock price. More and more people would want to buy this
stock (i.e. high demand) and very few people will want to sell this stock at current
market price (i.e. less supply). Therefore, buyers will have to bid a higher price for this
stock to match the ask price from the seller which will increase the stock price of ABC
Co. Ltd. On the contrary, if there are more sellers than buyers (i.e. high supply and low
demand) for the stock of ABC Co. Ltd. in the market, its price will fall down.
In earlier times, buyers and sellers used to assemble at stock exchanges to make a
transaction but now with the dawn of IT, most of the operations are done electronically
and the stock markets have become almost paperless. Now investors dont have to
gather at the Exchanges, and can trade freely from their home or office over the phone
or through Internet.
History of the Indian Stock Market - The Origin
One of the oldest stock markets in Asia, the Indian Stock Markets have a 200 years old
history.
17. 17
18th Century East India Company was the dominant institution and by end of the century,
busuness in its loan securities gained full momentum
1830's Business on corporate stocks and shares in Bank and Cotton presses started
in Bombay. Trading list by the end of 1839 got broader
1840's Recognition from banks and merchants to about half a dozen brokers
1850's Rapid development of commercial enterprise saw brokerage business
attracting more People into the business
1860's The number of brokers increased to 60
1860-61 The American Civil War broke out which caused a stoppage of cotton supply
from United States of America; marking the beginning of the "Share Mania"
in India
1862-63 The number of brokers increased to about 200 to 250
1865 A disastrous slump began at the end of the American Civil War
(as an example, Bank of Bombay Share which had touched Rs. 2850 could
only be sold at Rs. 87)
Pre-Independence Scenario - Establishment of Different Stock Exchanges
1874 With the rapidly developing share trading business, brokers used to gather
at a street (now well known as "Dalal Street") for the purpose of transacting
business.
1875 "The Native Share and Stock Brokers' Association" (also known as
"The Bombay Stock Exchange") was established in Bombay
1880's Development of cotton mills industry and set up of many others
1894 Establishment of "The Ahmedabad Share and Stock Brokers' Association"
1880 - 90's Sharp increase in share prices of jute industries in 1870's was followed by a
boom in tea stocks and coal
1908 "The Calcutta Stock Exchange Association" was formed
18. 18
1920 Madras witnessed boom and business at "The Madras Stock Exchange"
was transacted with 100 brokers.
1923 When recession followed, number of brokers came down to 3 and the
Exchange was closed down
1934 Establishment of the Lahore Stock Exchange
1936 Merger of the Lahoe Stock Exchange with the Punjab Stock Exchange
1937 Re-organisation and set up of the Madras Stock Exchange Limited (Pvt.)
Limited led by improvement in stock market activities in South India with
establishment of new textile mills and plantation companies
1940 Uttar Pradesh Stock Exchange Limited and Nagpur Stock Exchange Limited

1944 Establishment of "The Hyderabad Stock Exchange Limited"
1947 "Delhi Stock and Share Brokers' Association Limited" and "The Delhi Stocks
and Shares Exchange Limited" were established and later on merged into
"The Delhi Stock Exchange Association Limited"
Post Independence Scenario
The depression witnessed after the Independence led to closure of a lot of exchanges in
the country. Lahore Stock Exchange was closed down after the partition of India, and
later on merged with the Delhi Stock Exchange. Bangalore Stock Exchange Limited was
registered in 1957 and got recognition only by 1963. Most of the other Exchanges were
in a miserable state till 1957 when they applied for recognition under Securities
Contracts (Regulations) Act, 1956. The Exchanges that were recognized under the Act
were:
Bombay
Calcutta
Madras
Ahmadabad
Delhi
Hyderabad
Bangalore
Indore
19. 19
Many more stock exchanges were established during 1980's, namely:
Cochin Stock Exchange (1980)
Uttar Pradesh Stock Exchange Association Limited (at Kanpur, 1982)
Pune Stock Exchange Limited (1982)
Ludhiana Stock Exchange Association Limited (1983)
Gauhati Stock Exchange Limited (1984)
Kanara Stock Exchange Limited (at Mangalore, 1985)
Magadh Stock Exchange Association (at Patna,1986)

Bhubaneswar Stock Exchange Association Limited (1989)
Saurashtra Kutch Stock Exchange Limited (at Rajkot, 1989)
Vadodara Stock Exchange Limited (at Baroda, 1990)
Coimbatore Stock Exchange
Meerut Stock Exchange
At present, there are twenty one recognized stock exchanges in India which does not
include the Over The Counter Exchange of India Limited (OTCEI) and the National Stock
Exchange of India Limited (NSEIL).
Government policies during 1980's also played a vital role in the development of the
Indian Stock Markets. There was a sharp increase in number of Exchanges, listed
companies as well as their capital, which is visible from the following table:

Trading Pattern of the Indian Stock Market
Indian Stock Exchanges allow trading of securities of only those public limited
companies that are listed on the Exchange(s). They are divided into two categories:
21. 21
Types of Transactions
The flowchart below describes the types of transactions that can be carried out on the
Indian stock exchanges:
Indian stock exchange allows a member broker to perform following activities:
Acts as an agent,
Buy and sell securities for his clients and charge commission for the same,
22. 22
Act as a trader or dealer as a principal,
Buy and sell securities on his own account and risk.
Over The Counter Exchange of India (OTCEI)
Traditionally, trading in Stock Exchanges in India followed a conventional style where
people used to gather at the Exchange and bids and offers were made by open outcry.
This age-old trading mechanism in the Indian stock markets used to create many
functional inefficiencies. Lack of liquidity and transparency, long settlement periods and
benami transactions are a few examples that adversely affected investors. In order to
overcome these inefficiencies, OTCEI was incorporated in 1990 under the Companies
Act 1956. OTCEI is the first screen based nationwide stock exchange in India created by
Unit Trust of India, Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India, Industrial
Development Bank of India, SBI Capital Markets, Industrial Finance Corporation of India,
General Insurance Corporation and its subsidiaries and CanBank Financial Services.
Advantages of OTCEI
Greater liquidity and lesser risk in intermediary charges due to widely spread
trading mechanism across India.
The screen-based scrip less trading ensures transparency and accuracy of prices.
Faster settlement and transfer process as compared to other exchanges.
23. 23
Shorter allotment procedure(in case of a new issue) than other exchanges.
National Stock Exchange
In order to lift the Indian stock market trading system on par with the international
standards. On the basis of the recommendations of high powered Pherwani Committee,
the National Stock Exchange was incorporated in 1992 by Industrial Development Bank
of India, Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India, Industrial Finance
Corporation of India, all Insurance Corporations, selected commercial banks and others.
NSE provides exposure to investors in two types of markets, namely:
Wholesale debt market
Capital Market
Wholesale Debt Market - Similar to money market operations, debt market operations
involve institutional investors and corporate bodies entering into transactions of high
value in financial instruments like treasury bills, government securities, commercial
papers etc.
Trading at NSE
1. Fully automated screen-based trading mechanism.
2. Strictly follows the principle of an order-driven market.
3. Trading members are linked through a communication network.
4. This network allows them to excuse trade from their offices.
5. The prices at which the buyer and seller are willing to transact will appear on the
screen.
6. When the prices match the transaction will be completed.
7. A confirmation slip will be printed at the office of the trading member
Advantages of trading at NSE
1. Integrated network for trading in stock market of India
2. Fully automated screen based system that provides higher degree of
transparency
3. Investors can transact from any pary of the country at uniform prices
