Astana International Exchange (“AIX”, “Exchange”) is proud to announce that the trading volume on AIX has reached $1bn since the start of 2024, bringing the total trading volume to over $2bn since the Exchange’s launch in 2018.
This milestone was achieved through the active participation of the domestic clients, a substantial rise in foreign retail and institutional investors, as well as the increase in the number of listed securities overall. In 2024 alone AIX registered 100 new listings bringing the total number of listed securities to 230.
Assel Mukazhanova, CEO of the AIX, noted:
“It took us five years to reach the first $1bn milestone, but less than ten months to achieve the second. This remarkable acceleration is testament to the robust infrastructure we’ve built, driving our growth today. With this solid foundation in place, we are more committed than ever to maintain and even surpass this momentum as we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible for the overall benefit of the development of the Kazakhstani capital market.”
