Monday 21 August 2000 at 16:00

Regulators in Frankfurt and London will this week unveil their initial proposals for regulating iX, the stock exchange being created from the merger of the Deutsche Börse and London Stock Exchange.

The proposals are expected to point the way towards a gradual harmonisation of supervisory rules and regulations in the London and Frankfurt markets. In particular, they are likely to indicate that Frankfurt will move towards greater market transparency.
