About the exchange
Although the history of KLSE can be traced to the 1930s, the Exchange, as we know it today, was established in 1973 to provide a central market place for buyers and sellers to transact business in the shares, bonds and various other securities of Malaysian listed companies. A strong link existed between the KLSE and Stock Exchange of Singapore (SES) at that time as Malaysian incorporated companies were also listed and traded through the SES, and vice-versa for Singapore incorporated companies. A significant milestone for the KLSE was achieved in 1990 with the delisting of Singapore incorporated companies from the KLSE and vice-versa for Malaysian companies listed on the SES. This move heralded the growth of the KLSE as a stock exchange with a truly Malaysian identity.
