Meanwhile, Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE) is now selling access to live market data from as low as $10 and $15 for locals and foreigners respectively in a bid to enhance informational efficiency on the local bourse through View only terminals (VOT).
The bourse announced the initiative last month, but only released the related costs on Thursday.
Acting chief executive, Martin Matanda said VOTs are viewing rights to ZSE’s live trading on the Automated Trading System (ATS).
The terminals will allow the user to view best bids/ask, volume, number of trades, high/low price trade price, trade/cumulative volume weighted average price, price change and trade value.-The Source
