As of August 26, NASDAQ OMX Stockholm will extend the list of companies using the tick-size table “Most Liquid shares”


As of Wednesday August 26, there will be ten (10) additional blue-chip companies that will be transferred to the tick-size table “Most Liquid shares” on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm. This change is a consequence of increased competition and reductions in tick sizes implemented by other trading venues that offer trading in shares listed on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm. NASDAQ OMX will continue to monitor the effects this has on liquidity by the move to the Most liquid table of the effected instruments. Tick size defines the minimum price movement and hence the minimum difference between bid and ask prices in the order book for a specific share. The following companies will be added:

	SECU B	                  (Securitas)
