  • Reinsurance companies: listing of catastrophe bonds, insurance-linked securities, and other collateralised vehicles within the EU
  • Asset Managers: raising visibility within the EU

Once listed on either the Main Market or the Global Market, an applicant must continue to comply with all the requirements of the GSX Listing Code for Debt Securities:
