The JSE has introduced significant changes to its listing requirements. The aim of the revision was to:

- provide greater transparency in a listed company's activities;

- reduce ambiguity in the requirements for listed companies;

- provide easier access to the market for emerging entrepreneurs and companies assisting in the reconstruction and development of the country;

- improve market liquidity; and

- improve investor protection.

The proposals were contained in a consultation draft which was sent to all listed companies and other interested parties for discussion. The consultation process was designed to give the interested parties the opportunity to contribute to the new requirements to ensure the successful and secure development of South Africa's equity market. All comments received were considered by the JSE and the new listings requirements were introduced on 1 July 1995.
