/PanARMENIAN.Net/ As part of its commitment to promoting accessibility
and quality of capital market information to market participants and
the general public, NASDAQ OMX Armenia has enhanced the market data
delivery on its website. This upgrade has become possible thanks to
the introduction of a software application that enhances the dynamic
information exchange between the trading system and the website of
the stock exchange, the company said in a press release.

Thus, apart from the already available reports with standard reporting
periods (day, month, quarter, and year), users will now be able to
create customized market data reports for any time period through the
website. Besides that, since the Market Data section is now updated
once every 30 minutes starting 11:00am, when the trading session opens,
visitors to the website can stay abreast of the latest developments in
the exchange market, including values traded in each instrument and
prices. Presentation of data has also been streamlined to provide a
more user-friendly look, as well as enhanced: in particular, for repo
instruments, values of both the direct and the buyout (redemption)
trades are displayed.

In addition to the above, all market data will now be available for
download in comma-separated values (*.csv) format, which is used
worldwide for data presentation and is a convenient feature for
all those involved in the Armenian capital market data compilation,
analysis, and reporting.

NASDAQ OMX Armenia hopes that these enhancements will promote the
effective use of Armenian capital market information by specialists,
media, and general audiences and will continue with its efforts in
this area.
