The most important financial markets of the world

The spectacular growth of the development of the financial markets during the eighties, as far as the amounts of activity and increase in market rates, as well as the disappearing of regulation barriers, have favored globalization of the financial entities amongst the big markets. Currently there are three international markets which are New York, Tokyo and London. The rest of the markets work in function of these three.

New York
New York is the most important financial market in the world due to the great combined amount and its influence on the other markets. This important financial center is located in the well known of Wall Street and various markets are managed within it. The most important is the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), in which approximately 1500 first order societies are admitted into. It groups 70 percent of the transactions that are carried out in that country. The second market is the American Stock Exchange (AMEX), where combines over 2,000 societies. Finally the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System (NASDAQ), which is an electronic market in which over 3,000 societies that have not been admitted into the big markets are continuously rated, although this is changing and today shares of prestigious companies such as Microsoft and others can be found in.

Tokyo
The Tokyo stock market, denominated as Kabuto-cho, is the second world wide center of capitalization. Despite the fact that more and more foreign investors are entering, of the 1,600 combined societies, very few are not Japanese.

London
The London Stock Exchange, located in the City, is the main financial center of Europe. Around 2,000 societies are combined around it. Out of all the stock markets in the world, London is the market that has the most amounts of international societies registered in their quotations.

Germany
The stock markets of Frankfort and D?sseldorf, just like the financial system, are in the hands of the banks, which have the titles of the societies and are empowered to receive purchasing and selling orders on the part of the investors. in 1991 a very modern informatics system was inaugurated to operate the transactions dominated IBIS. Frankfort is attempting to reach the level of the London Stock Market and for this requires the necessary tools. Despite all this, the European financial clientele continues to prefer the London market.

Switzerland
Even though this small country has seven stock exchanges, the main transactions are done in three markets, which are in Zurich, Geneva, and Basel.  From May of 1988, there is a big electronic market of options and futures denominated SOFTEX that is very efficient.

The stock exchange in Brussels shares London’s privilege of having a high number of international societies in their transactions.

This market is famous because of the physical advantages it provides. The established collected investment organisms in Luxemburg do not pay taxes on their earnings and capital. Besides, there is not any retention on the dividends that have been distributed.

Holland
Amsterdam is one of the oldest financial markets. Up until 1945 it was situated in the third place worldwide, right behind New York and London.

The Stock Market in the Far East and Latin America
During the decade of the nineties there were a great number of interesting financial international markets that surged from the point of view of its high profitability, but with more unstable markets and ones that were more volatile, which are directly affected by the political happenings in those countries. However, despite this fact, many investors risk their fortune speculating on these, and go after promising gains. Amongst the countries of these continents that stand out we can include the stock exchanges in Hong Kong, Seoul, and Bangkok, in the Far East; as well as Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, and Mexico, in South America.
