Achieving recognition by FTSE Russell is a validation of NEO as a proven and reputable Canadian mainboard stock exchange. This accreditation enables NEO to offer yet another benefit to capital-raising companies, above and beyond our exceptional client service and support, unique liquidity solutions, and unfettered access to market data.”
