RASDAQ trading reaches 218m euros

Trading by brokers on the RASDAQ between the beginning of the year and the end of November amounted to 218 million euros, 12% higher than for the whole of last year. Brokers last month handled a total of 21.8 million euros’ worth of trading, twice the value seen in the equivalent period last year. Trading on the RASDAQ accounted for half that value. Rombell Securities has kept its position as top RASDAQ broker since the beginning of the year and is likely to remain so at the end of the year. In 2003, Rombell was number 26 with 53bn ROL (1.4 million euros) of trading. Last year’s number one broker was Raiffeisen Capital & Investment with 1,870bn ROL (49 million euros). Rombell gained its number one position due to transactions related to the bid by the US company Cargill’s bid to buy the grain storage operator Comcereal Alexandria from by Broadhurst investment fund.
