  • Tmx Group History at a Glance
    TMX GROUP HISTORY AT A GLANCE The following is a timeline of significant events in the organization’s history. 1852 A group of Toronto businessmen met on October 24, 1852 with the intention of forming an "Association of Brokers". The association created that day established the framework for Toronto Stock Exchange. Although they may have traded in shares that were available at that time, no official records remain of the groups' transactions. 1861 A resolution was passed by the association to formally create Toronto Stock Exchange. In its early years, Toronto Stock Exchange trading volume was very modest, amounting to two or three transactions daily. Trading hours were limited to daily half-hour sessions and the trading list consisted of 18 securities. The cost of membership was $5.00. 1871 Toronto Stock Exchange had 14 member firms -- each paid $250 to purchase a seat. 1878 Toronto Stock Exchange became formally incorporated by an Act of the Ontario Legislature. Toronto Stock Exchange moved into its first permanent headquarters at 24 King Street East in Toronto. 1901 The price of a Toronto Stock Exchange seat or membership rose to $12,000. Trading volume approached 1 million shares per year and 100 companies were listed. The Exchange moved to 20 King Street East and continuous auction trading was introduced. 1913 -Page 1- The Exchange built and moved into its own building on Bay Street. Technological advances lead to the introduction of the first print-out-ticker which carried a series of trading prices as well as bid and ask offering quotations. 1914 The fear of financial panic when World War 1 was declared prompted Toronto Stock Exchange to cease operations for three months, beginning July 28, 1914.

  • MONTREAL Opalesque Roundtable Series Sponsor
    Opalesque Roundtable Series MONTREAL Opalesque Roundtable Series Sponsor: opalesque.com Editor ’s Note A world-class city in the alternative investment space Québec is the second-most populous province (8.3m) in Canada (after Ontario) and the only one to have a predominantly French-speaking population, with French as the sole provincial official language. With a territory nearly three times the size of France or Texas, most inhabitants live in urban areas near the Saint Lawrence River between Montréal and Québec City, the capital. Montréal is definitely a world-class city in the alternative investment space, for a number of reasons. For one, you can find some excellent universities here: McGill University, Concordia, HEC Montréal, and Université de Montréal. Second: the Montréal Exchange has launched equity options in 1975, right after CBOE launched the first options in the US. Like in Chicago, this derivatives exchange created a lot of talent in terms of trading, operations, regulations, and market know-how. The third reason, and this is another very special feature of Montréal, is the quality of the institutional investing space. Some of the finest pension funds that invest in alternatives are in Montréal and have world-class respect; Caisse de depot, PSP, Bimcor, CN and Air Canada. There are also some very sophisticated family offices in Montréal. Canadian banks have a strong presence in Montréal, along with some well established investment firms, and consulting firms. One can find some talented hedge fund managers, emerging managers, and private prop traders. All of this creates a very rich ecosystem for the finance community in Montréal.

The Creation of TMX Group: Dramatic Changes on the Canadian Stock Exchange Scene – 1999 to 2008 Introduction In June 2008, Tom Kloet was settling into his new office in The Exchange Tower and thinking about the challenges he would face as CEO of the newly-created TMX Group. Unlike previous heads of Canadian exchanges, Kloet was American. He grew up in Illinois, attended the University of Iowa and started his career with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. From this starting point, he developed a deep specialization in derivatives markets, acquired through progressively senior roles in both the exchange and brokerage aspects of the industry. Although Kloet had worked abroad, most notably as the first CEO of the Singapore Exchange (itself created from a combination of the Stock Exchange of Singapore and the SIMEX), and the Canadian operations of Societé Generale’s global brokerage unit FIMAT had reported to him, he had no direct work experience in Canada.
