NASD, Amex boards approve agreement on merger

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The National Association of Securities
Dealers and the American Stock Exchange Wednesday said their
respective boards approved an agreement to merge the Amex into the
NASD.

The deal calls for the merger of the Amex ''into the NASD family of
companies,'' the stock exchanges said in the statement. It would
combine the Nasdaq, governed by the NASD, and the Amex, the
nation's second and third-largest U.S. stock markets, respectively.

The Nasdaq lists 5,466 companies worth $1.9 trillion, including
high-tech heavyweights such as Microsoft Corp. and Intel Corp..

The market value of the 783 companies on Amex at the end of 1997
was $168 billion.

Any decision on the proposed merger is subject to a vote by exchange
members.
