LSE 24 Hour Trading Considered20 Jul 2025 17:08
London Stock Exchange Group is weighing whether to launch 24-hour trading as bourses race to extend access to stocks amid growing demand from small investors active outside normal business hours.
The group is looking into the practicalities of increasing its trading hours, according to people familiar with the situation, from the technology required to regulatory implications.
LSEG is “absolutely looking at it, whether it means 24-hour trading or extended trading”, one of the people said, adding that the exchange group was “having important commercial, policy and regulatory discussions” about the “ongoing topic”.
