From local to global: the rise of AIM as a stock market for growing companies: a comprehensive report analysing the growth of AIM

摘要

In the light of a great deal of negative press activity and factual inaccuracies presented in the media, The London Stock Exchange approached LSE Enterprise to commission an independent research study, which would analyse and comment on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM), London's stock market for small or growing businesses.ududThis report, which looked extensively at the statistical data available, as well as the regulatory reforms which AIM has undergone throughout its history, was designed as an authoritative guide to the development, governance and dynamics of AIM and of its contribution to the UK economy.ududThe report, published in full, electronically (an abridged hard copy is also available), considers both how successful AIM has been to date, as well as the reasons for its various successes, and the challenges that it has faced.
