Olof Neiglick, CEO of Burgundy comments about the month:
“Burgundy’s average daily turnover for the Nordic countries was EUR 149.0 (134.9) million. The total market turnover for all marketplaces trading Swedish equities increased by 19 percent in April, compared with March. The total market turnover for all marketplaces trading Nordic equities increased by 7 percent in April, compared with March. The increased turnover in both Swedish and Nordic equity trading is largely due to the continued seasonal-related increase in the OTC* trading.
Worth mentioning is that 49% of the total trading in Nordic equities was OTC and Dark Pool trading during April, for the month of March the corresponding number was 40%. In Swedish equities the OTC and Dark Pool trading consisted of 49% of the total trading during April, compared with 39% in March.**”
