50 years ago, The Telegraph gave impetus for establishment of Options Exchange
17/03/2025
‘Stock exchange board thinks of creating own options market’ headlined the Dutch Telegraph on 18 March 1975. In retrospect, the article turned out to be an impetus for the establishment of the European Options Exchange (EOE), the Amsterdam options market and Europe's first options exchange.
In the article, commission agent Frederick Bangert praised the success of options trading in the United States. Thanks to the publication, the creation of an options market made it onto the agenda of the Amsterdam Stock Exchange Board. this ultimately lead to the official launch of the EOE 1978.
Kamran Ullah, editor-in-chief of the Telegraph, marked this special occasion of 50 years ago with opening today's markets in the presence of the Financial Telegraph's editors. The Group was hosted by Dirk Donker, Head of Secondary Markets Benelux & Germany and Board Member of Euronext Amsterdam, and Paul Noordam, Senior Manager Product & Sales.
