Securities trading began in 2002 with an initial platform that evolved into the formal establishment of the exchange in 2008. This expansion of the financial market followed the adoption of the Securities Act in 2006.
The exchange promotes financial education through partnerships with institutions like the Maldives National University Business School to develop investment knowledge among local populations.
