The Budapest Stock Exchange Plc. (BSE) creates a platform for Hungarian companies to grow and prosper. Our mission includes providing small and medium-sized firms with expertise and financial support needed to join the stock exchange, as well as improving the financial culture in our society.

BSE has a considerable history: it was originally established in 1864 and re-established after the fall of communism in 1990. Today we are following our 2021-2025 strategy, which includes further increasing the role of the capital market in the Hungarian economy, promoting regional and industry cooperation, encouraging IT innovation and security, and taking steps in the future self-listing of BSE.

Our blue-chip companies represent well the Hungarian economy, with the total market capitalization of listed firms standing at approximately US $19.4 billion. We are set to further develop the capital market ecosystem where issuers are creating exciting opportunities for domestic and international investors, both retail and institutional.

In 2017, we introduced BÉT Xtend as a special market for medium-sized companies to join the exchange. Furthermore, BSE has a joint programme together with ELITE, a company of the Euronext Group, which gives mentorship to up and coming Hungarian companies to learn about the ways they can grow using diverse financing opportunities. Further BSE services for aspiring SMEs include BÉT50 for providing successful Hungarian companies visibility; BÉT Xmatch for facilitating private transactions; and recently, helping companies to ESG education and mentoring.

BSE is powered by Xetra, one of the fastest and most reliable trading systems in the world.
