History:
From http://www.londonstockexchange.com/about/about_05.asp
1760 150 brokers kicked out of the Royal Exchange for rowdiness form a club at Jonathan's Coffee House to buy and sell shares.
1773 Members vote to change name to Stock Exchange.
1801 We become a regulated Exchange.
1914 The Great War meant the Exchange market closed at the end of July until the new year. The Stock Exchange Battalion of Royal Fusiliers was formed - 1,600 volunteered, 400 never returned.
1972 Her Majesty the Queen opened the Exchange's new 26-storey office block with its 23,000 sq ft trading floor.
1973 First female members admitted to the market.
1986 Big bang:
Ownership of member firms by an outside corporation is allowed.
All firms become broker/dealers able to operate in a dual capacity.
Minimum scales of commission are abolished.
Individual members cease to have voting rights.
Trading moves from being conducted face-to-face on a market floor to being performed via computer and telephone from separate dealing rooms. This is enabled by SEAQ and SEAQ International - 2 computer systems displaying share price information in brokers' offices around the UK.
We become a private limited company under the Companies Act 1985.
1991 We replace the governing Council of the Exchange with a Board of directors drawn from the Exchange's executive, customer and user base.
1995 We launch AIM - a market for growing companies.
1997 SETS (Stock Exchange Electronic Trading Service) is launched to bring greater speed and efficiency to the market.
The settlement service - transferring stock from seller to buyer and arranging the movement of money - is no longer provided by the Exchange, moving to CRESTCo.
2000 We transfer our role as UK Listing Authority with HM Treasury to the Financial Services Authority (FSA).
Shareholders vote for us to become a public limited company and we become London Stock Exchange plc. Dealing in our shares is conducted via an off-market trading facility operated by Cazenove and Co.
2001 We list in July.
We celebrate our 200th anniversary.
Damn he's good!!!! But we don't wanna give you 250,000, we want to give you 500,000 simoleans!

Unfortunately not, Celebrated 200th year in 2001, means it started in 1801. trading in Amsterdam has been happening since 1602Quote:
