London Stock Exchange (LON:LSE) - So much more than an exchange
Jun 25th 2012 - Edison Investment Research today published a report on London Stock Exchange (LSE.L, LSE:LSE, LON:LSE) entitled "So Much More Than An Exchange". In summary, the report says:
In less than five years, the London Stock Exchange Group (LSE) has been transformed. Traditional cash equities trading and company listing operations now account for around a quarter of revenue and with the LCH.Clearnet deal will fall further. There are fixed income and derivative businesses and, since 2008, post trade, information and technology services have each added £50m or more to revenue. In this initiation note, we explain how these services operate, and their sensitivities.
