Statistics database on cross-border securities

Deloitte has updated its Database of Statistics which provides clear evidence of the globalization of the world’s capital markets and of the need for global financial reporting standards. The update reflects July 2007 data on the number of non-US companies listed on member exchanges of the World Federation of Exchanges and details of cross-border listings on the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ and the London Stock Exchange. The data includes cross-border lending and accounting standards used by companies listed on the Deutsche Börse, as well as foreign companies registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
