Nepal Stock Exchange, Stock exchange in Kathmandu, Nepal
The Nepal Stock Exchange is a securities trading platform in Kathmandu where shares, bonds, and other financial instruments are traded through an electronic system. The facility includes trading rooms with digital displays, offices for licensed brokers, and a central server that processes all transactions in real time.
The institution began operations in 1993 following the enactment of the Securities Act and started with only five listed companies. Over three decades the number of listed firms grew to more than 200 while trading shifted from manual systems to fully digitalized procedures.
The trading hall sits in the busy financial district of Kathmandu and brings together brokers, analysts, and investors tracking the pulse of the Nepali economy each day. The building itself combines modern technology with local architecture and reflects the growing role of the capital market in the life of the city.
Access to trading happens through licensed brokers who open accounts for investors and execute transactions on behalf of their clients. Real-time market data and index levels can be accessed through the official website so you can track price movements from any location.
This exchange remains the only securities trading platform in the entire country and is directly regulated by the government securities board. All Nepali companies seeking to raise capital in the public market must list their shares here.
