BSE Strategy 2016-2020
The overarching aim of the five-year strategy devised by the Budapest Stock Exchange (BSE) for the period 2016-2020 is to formulate and implement a comprehensive stock exchange development programme in Hungary, which will result in capital fundraising increasing its role in Hungarian corporate finance, making it an effective supplement to credit from the banking sector, which predominates at present. The objective of BSE is to become the most important platform for competitive and successful enterprises in Hungary.

BSE Strategic Report - 2020
Looking back at 2020, the first thing most people will recall anywhere in the world is the pandemic triggered by the COVID-19 virus, the lockdown, and the economic downturn. Although the challenges posed by 2020 have put stock exchanges to the test as well, they passed it with flying colours. Trading went on uninterrupted, and the participants of the financial system were capable of tackling the heightened volatility. 2020 is an important milestone for the Budapest Stock Exchange for another reason as well: it marks the conclusion of the implementation of the BSE’s five-year stock exchange development strategy presented in 2016 and, in parallel with this, we are set to define the strategic directions for the coming years. The year is also special for marking the 30th anniversary of the re-opening of the Budapest Stock Exchange.

BSE Strategic Report - 2019
2019 saw us taking further steps towards the goal of making the Budapest Stock Exchange an important financing platform for companies in Hungarian ownership. After a moderate 2018, the BUX Index increased by a middle-ranking 18 percent in 2019. The two biggest issuers of the stock exchange, OTP and Mol, also outperformed the expectations, and the latter one increased its annual profit goals as a result. 2019 saw us celebrating a special jubilee: at the end of November, we recalled the major milestones of the history of Richter Gedeon, another blue chip, on the stock exchange with a ceremony celebrating the 25th anniversary of its IPO.

BSE Strategic Report - 2018
Once again, the year flew by quickly, and we can safely say that it was an outstanding one for the Budapest Stock Exchange. Following the steep price increase of 2017, the BUX broke another record at the start of 2018, and while other exchanges experienced substantial declines, we saw the index soar to near record heights on several occasions before the year-end. OTP, the biggest company on the exchange, reached a new record-high price after 11 years, while the second largest security, MOL, was at its highest level since the 2008 crisis.

BSE Strategic Report - 2017
The Budapest Stock Exchange set its goals three years ago and has now successfully concluded the second year of implementing its 2016–2020 strategy. Trading volume on the cash equity market – the most important measure of our performance – grew by an outstanding rate last year, as shown by the results of the first eleven months available at the time of compiling this summary.
