Irish Stock Exchange
The Irish Stock Exchange is a key element of the financial infrastructure of Ireland. Its roots stretch
back to 1793 when the Exchange first opened for trading in Dublin.
As a regulated Stock Exchange, the Exchange complies with the requirements of European Directives,
including the Prospectus Directive and Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID), in relation
to securities listed and admitted to trading on the Main Market of the Exchange. These securities
comprise equities, corporate bonds, government bonds, investment funds, exchange traded funds and
specialist securities. In addition, the Exchange has developed standards of the highest quality
for securities admitted to trading on the Irish Enterprise Exchange and the Alternative Securities Market.
Trading on the Exchange is primarily conducted in the equities and government bond markets on the
ISE/Xetra® trading platform and EuroMTS platform respectively. The highest regulatory standards apply
to participation in the Exchange's markets to ensure the protection of investors and the integrity of
the market.
