Cambodia Gets Ready to Open its Stock Exchange →
As of April 18th, around the time of the Cambodian New Year, the country will open its stock exchange. While Cambodia’s financial state was battered by the Khmer Rouge regime just three decades ago, there is hope that trading will build-up and strengthen economy. While Cambodians have had little exposure to investing in the stock market up to this point because of the Khmer Rouge takeover and decimation of the country in 1975, 200 trading seminars have been organized by Phnom Penh Securities since June. Investor interest appears to be high at the moment, but as with any stock market, this market too will under-go its “booms, busts, and boredom.”
