Formation of the stock market institutions in Azerbaijan began in 2000 with the establishment of the stock exchange. However, despite the presence of over 10 brokers, depositories and other capital market infrastructure institutions, securities have not yet become a tool of investment. Baku Stock Exchange does not provide listing, quotes and index of corporate securities. There are no investment funds either. - 08D-
