NEW YORK – December 18, 2019 – IPC, a leading global provider of secure, compliant communications and networking solutions for the global financial markets community, announces today its expansion into the Lima Stock Exchange (Bolsa de Valores de Lima; BVL). BVL, the stock exchange of Peru, is one of the most important stock exchanges in the southern hemisphere with a market capitalization of approximately US$149 billion, equivalent to roughly 67% of Peru’s GDP. It is the most active mining stock exchange in South America. BVL’s market data is now available to IPC clients in the equity and derivatives markets.
BVL was founded in 1860 and has nearly 260 listed companies. The exchange is also significantly strengthened through its participation in the Mercado Integrado Latinoamericano (MILA).
