Administrative history

The Sydney Stock Exchange was formed to allow brokers and traders to trade stocks and bonds for companies listed in New South Wales. It formed an association with the stock exchanges in Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane Perth and Hobart called the Australian Associated Stock Exchanges but remained an independent body. These six stock exchanges amalgamated on 1 April 1987 to form the Australian Stock Exchange Limited (ASX)
