BYMA – the leading Stock Exchange in Argentina– was present at Nasdaq MarketSite in Times Square, New York to attend the Opening Bell ceremony at 10.15 AM (GMT-05).
Honoring the occasion, Ernesto Allaria –BYMA Chairman– and Gonzalo Pascual Merlo –BYMA CEO– rang the Opening Bell to celebrate our ongoing partnership.
Since 2019, BYMA has been working together with Nasdaq in the provision of international standard technology for the evolution of the Argentine Capital Market. In September 2023, Caja de Valores –BYMA Group’s Central Securities Depository– launched its new Securities Custody System developed with Nasdaq’s leading CSD technology. This IT platform significantly leveraged the CSD’s possibility to meet operational and performance needs with efficiency and immediacy, and to set the grounds for future growth while capitalizing new business opportunities.
In this respect, BYMA Chairman, Ernesto Allaria, said: “This is a milestone in our path driven by permanent innovation and evolution. We have the opportunity to make the Argentine Capital Market visible to the world and we will continue to work with this outstanding leading provider to benefit the Argentine Market”.
BYMA CEO, Gonzalo Pascual Merlo also added: “We truly believe that the Capital Market must be the driving force behind any country’s economy. At BYMA, we do take this responsibility seriously. We know how vital our role is in the Argentinean society and we are committed to be the market infrastructure the country needs to boost growth.”
The host of today’s Market Opening ceremony, Associate Vice President of Nasdaq’s Marketplace Technology unit, Carlos Patiño, stated: “We truly appreciate the opportunity to celebrate our long-standing partnership and look forward to supporting BYMA’s continued growth and development.”
