Abstract
The Cyprus Stock Exchange (CSE) was established by virtue of The Cyprus Stock Exchange Laws and Regulations of 1993 and 1995. The legislation provides the basis for the formation and operation of the CSE and for the development of the securities market in Cyprus. The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySec) is the competent authority for the supervision of the CSE's actions. The CSE currently provides a range of services, including the provision of investor services in relation to the Cyprus Depository, the settlement of transactions through specialised systems and the Listing and Trading of Securities. The CSE provides for trading on both the regulated market and the Emerging Companies Market (ECM) which was established in 2009.
