Olof Neiglick, CEO of Burgundy comments about the month:
“Burgundy’s average daily turnover for the Nordic countries was EUR 134.9 (140.9) million. The total market turnover for all marketplaces trading Nordic equities increased by 28 percent in March, compared with February, which is largely due to the seasonal-related increase in the OTC* trading.
Worth mentioning is that 40% of the total trading in Nordic equities was OTC and Dark Pool trading during March, for the month of February the corresponding number was 26%. In Swedish equities the OTC and Dark Pool trading consisted of 39% of the total trading during March, compared with 23% in February.**”
