The Nordic Exchange welcomes East Capital Explorer - a new investment opportunity


Today the trading in East Capital Explorer's shares commence on OMX Nordic
Exchange Stockholm. The company is the thirty-third to join the Nordic
Exchange's main market this year. 

East Capital Explorer AB is a newly formed Swedish company that brings
investment opportunities in Eastern Europe to a broader investor base. The

fast growing sectors in Eastern Europe and has appointed East Capital to manage
its investment activities.

Nordic Exchange and more are on their way. One example is East Capital
Explorer, a Mid Cap company that today will join the main market. This company
brings a new type of company into the Nordic Exchange and it is also an example
of the interest we see for emerging markets. Other examples are FirstFarms on
the main market and Trigon Agri and EOS Russia on First North,” says Jenny
