Danuta Pavilenene, BC, Vilnius, 12.10.2010.Print version
NASDAQ OMX Vilnius, owned by the global stock exchange operator NASDAQ OMX Group, has reported that it will change the currency for trade and payment from the litas to the euro as of November 22, 2010, to suit the needs of market players and investors.

Prime Minister Andrius Kubilius expects that foreign investors will find Lithuanian capital markets more attractive because of payments in euros, informs LETA/ELTA.

 

In addition, it is an important moment in the development of the Lithuanian capital market in the broad sense, Kubilius believes.

 

"Baltic securities markets have reached a high level of integration and a single currency for trade is another step towards full integration of the securities markets in our region. I am confident that this example will inspire the Baltic States for closer cooperation elsewhere as well," Prime Minister Kubilius said.
