The year 2014 saw the stock exchange in the Southern Caribbean, struggling to hold its own against profits made in 2013, with 39 percent fall to $2.74 million.
Revenue excluding investment income totalled $14.07 million, and was only 5.6 percent less than the $14.9 million in 2013 as reductions in transaction charges and bond trading Income were mitigated by increases in registrar and other Income.
Investment Income of $2.015 million was marginally less than the $2.021 million booked in 2013 as lower interest rates dampened the effect of higher investment balances. Total revenue, including investment income, was $16 million, 5.0 percent lower than the $16.92 million generated in 2013. Operating Expenses totalled $12.4 million, an increase of 11 percent from the corresponding charges for 2013 with consultancy and legal expenses contributing to most of the increase as the organisation completed a human resources review and also increased its regulatory activities. Consolidated total assets closed 2014 at $72.3 million, Shareholder’s equity $68.9 million and retained earnings at $54.6 million.
The stock exchange may be holding its own financially, but they have hiked fees to investors as stayed away from stock investments the same has been happening Jamaica, suggesting that there should be a push for the two exchanges to start merger discussion probably starting with back room operations.
