OffTop: Alberta Stock Exchange - Van Sun says VSE silent as ASE revs up defection campaign Alberta Stock Exchange ASE Shares issued 0 1899-12-30 close $0 Friday Aug 21 1998 See Vancouver Stock Exchange (VSE) In the News The Vancouver Sun reports in a lead business story in its Friday edition that the Alberta Stock Exchange, acting on a growing chorus of discontent, is trying to lure disgruntled companies away from the Vancouver Stock Exchange. Reporter Barbara Aarsteinsen says that armed with strong incentives, the ASE will hold two seminars in Vancouver in early September outlining the benefits of a switch. The bait includes an "expedited" listing program and a waiver of initial listing fees for companies that meet certain criteria. The fees normally run from $4,000 to $15,000. The ASE is the fastest-growing of the junior exchanges and it is a pretty good springboard to senior exchanges, according to ASE executive vice-president Gerry Romanzin. He says that 180 of the ASE's companies have graduated to the Toronto Stock Exchange in the last ten years. The VSE says it is not ready to comment on the ASE's incursion.
