Following the devastating 2020 in terms of Azeri aggression against Republic of Artsakh and Armenian nation and the pandemic, 2021 was a year of revival for Armenian securities market, with surging trade volumes and a number of new listings. Moreover, 2021 can be described as a year of agile technological modernization which is a priority for AMX, since we consider availability of exchange trading instruments for a wide range of traders and investors as one of the prerequisites for market success. Considering this priority, AMX has been a part of worldwide technological advance, having set the processes of developing secondary corporate market technology with financial assistance of our partners at EDB. As a result, we will have the new trading technology in 2022.
Another major achievement has been introduction of Armenian capital market Index. Based on the best international experience, Armenia Securities Exchange developed and for the first time in the region introduced corporate bond exchange indices, which are calculated and published on the official website of AMX on a daily basis. The exchange publishes data of 4 indices -coupon bonds issued in AMD and USD with a maturity of 1 to 3 years, and coupon bonds issued in AMD and USD with a maturity of 1 year and more.
In the turmoil of the coronavirus still impacting financial markets, we were able to keep the regional leading position and for the second consecutive year were granted the “Best Securities Exchange in South Caucasus” award by Global Banking and Finance Review. Furthermore, in 2021 Cbonds Awards CIS nominated AMX in the category "The Best Bond Deal" with regard to our participation in a cross-listing deal of one of our issuers.On our way to sustainability and ESG implementation, for the first time in Armenian capital market green bonds were admitted to trading at AMX.
2021 was prominent in terms of international cooperation as well. The Federation of Euro-Asian Stock Exchanges (FEAS), alongside with its members Armenia Securities Exchange and Central Depository of Armenia, held the “Meet the Market with FEAS | Securities Market of Armenia” virtual event. The one-day online event gathered more than 150 participants, who span the globe from Asia to Europe and Middle East and represent investment banks, stock exchanges, brokerage firms, asset managers, funds, international corporations. The event was attended by Armenian entities as well, including market participants, issuers and representatives of the Ministry of Finance.
Finally, in 2021 Armenia Securities Exchange launched a new website with advanced functionality and new features, such as Investor Calendar and index charts.
