Belgrade Stock Exchange (BELEX) has become a Partner Exchange of the United Nations Sustainable Stock Exchanges (SSE) initiative.

As said in the press release, BELEX thereby signifies its commitment to promoting transparent and sustainable capital markets.

– We are delighted to join the SSE initiative. This collaboration with the UN partnership program for sustainable capital markets will help us build capacity to further promote integration of sustainability considerations and corporate transparency into our issuer’s corporate behavior and business practices – says Sinisa Krneta, CEO of the Belgrade Stock Exchange.

As he adds, they believe that this partnership will help them strengthen our efforts in promoting the role of stock exchanges in fostering economic growth, improving SME access to finance and advancing corporate governance disclosure and performance among companies in Serbia.

– Through dialogue with investors, companies, regulators and other stakeholders, the Belgrade Stock Exchange has already committed to promoting long-term sustainable investment and corporate governance among Serbian companies – Krneta added.

According to him, collaboration with the SSE Initiative will provide valuable input and support to their efforts aimed at promoting best practices and international standards in sustainable investment, transparent capital market and reporting in Serbia.


The Belgrade Stock Exchange was originally founded in 1894, and the exchange in its present form goes back to 1989. It now joins 75 other stock exchanges partners of the SSE.

Launched in 2009, the SSE was built on the demand from exchanges for a place to come together with investors, companies and policymakers to share good practices and challenges in a multi-stakeholder environment.

The initiative has grown into what is now a global partnership platform including most of the world’s exchanges.
