Trading floor of Lahore Stock Exchange (LSE) in Faisalabad, which is expected to start functioning from July 1, will not only benefit the brokers and investors but also enhance trade volume of the exchange.
This was stated by LSE Managing Director Samir Ahmed on Wednesday.
"We have acquired an appropriate place for the purpose and renovation work will be started soon", he told Business Recorder.
"We expect the floor, which has been named 'Faisalabad Trading Floor' will be functional with start of the new financial year", he said.
