| Abstract: | The Johannesburg Stock Exchange, with a market capitalization more than ten times that of all other African exchanges put together, has moved location and changed identity. The author answers the question, what this will mean to capital markets in Africa. The make-over is a major milestone in the history of the South African bourse, even more profound perhaps than its deregulation in 1995. The move may well lead to demutualisation, following the global trend among exchanges. The Johannesburg exchange announced soon after its move and restructuring that it had opened a dialogue with its London counterpart. The discussions center around the implementation of a technology partnership. |
