TOKYO -- The Tokyo Stock
Exchange plans to tighten up
capital requirements for listing
on the
first section in a move
that could boot up to about
1,500 components from
the
top-level club.
Currently, a company needs
a market capitalization of just
2 billion yen
($18 million)
to make
it onto the first section,
now home to 2,131
components.
The plan is to raise the threshold
to 50 billion yen to 100 billion
yen as part of a wholesale
overhaul by the bourse to attract
international investors.
