Conditions For Admission To The Stock Exchange

The Stock Exchange, as an organized market institution, plays a critical role in the capital market by offering businesses the ability to raise capital through public offerings and, therefore, obtain direct external financing. At the same time, it functions as a mechanism for valuing companies, enhancing transparency, and expanding their business reach. In practice, listing on the Athens Stock Exchange (ATHEX) has become synonymous with high-potential businesses with proven financial stability, as the listing process itself requires compliance with specific qualitative and quantitative criteria.
