MCX SX signs up 700 members before going live on new equity exchange

23 Oct 2012 Evaluate

The new entrant MCX stock exchange (MCX-SX) has set a world record by signing up 700 members for its new equity exchange, the highest by any exchange before going live. The company’s new equity exchange is likely to commence trading from November-December period. National Stock Exchange (NSE), India's biggest exchange by volume, launched its operations with nearly 200 members in 1994, while, Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) started operations in 1875 with 318 members.

The MCX-SX, which currently operates only in currency derivatives segment, had announced the launch of its membership drive on September 5. Setting the stage for competition, the Stock Exchange, drastically unveiled a lowered deposits and net worth requirements for its members compared to the country's leading bourses. A broker to become a trading member of MCX, which in July got the regulatory nod to become a full-fledged exchange, as an introductory offer, was required to deposit of Rs 20 lakh for all segments, compared to Rs 1.5 crore for corporate members and Rs 75 lakh for others on NSE, and Rs 30 lakh for BSE. However, the introductory offer was valid only till October 18, post to which the charge would be doubled.
