Bahrain Bourse (BHB) started, as of Sunday, 1st December 2013 the implementation of the resolution to extend the trading period from three hours to three hours and a half, in which the main trading session starts at 9.30 AM and ends at 1 PM.
Shaikh Khalifa bin Ebrahim Al-Khalifa, Deputy CEO and Chief Operating Officer said: “The extension of the trading period comes along with the implementation of the Online Trading Incentive Program (OTIP); it will also give investors and portfolio managers in the West and European countries a longer time to trade in the securities listed at Bahrain Bourse, especially that the extension will solve part of the time difference between Bahrain and other countries.”
