Myanmar bourse to get first listing on March 25

Yangon

MYANMAR'S new stock exchange plans its first listing on March 25, the deputy finance minister told Reuters, more than three months after it was launched.

The country's economy was devastated by nearly 50 years of military rule. Rapid reforms since the junta handed over power in 2011 have included the development of capital markets to help finance growth, such as the new stock market.
