VLN: NASDAQ OMX Baltic Partners to Form the First Institutional Equity Research Company in the Baltics

NASDAQ OMX Vilnius Announcement from the exchange 28.05.2009

NASDAQ OMX Baltic Partners to Form the First Institutional Equity Research
Company in the Baltics

Vilnius, May 28, 2009 - NASDAQ OMX's exchanges in Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius,
part of The NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: NDAQ), announced today the
establishment of Emerging Nordic Research. It is the Baltic region's first
independent institutional equity research company founded with the explicit aim
of serving institutional investors. The company's Managing Director Ivars
Bergmanis has more than 20 years of global financial market experience. The
three Baltic exchanges will own 17 percent each respectively and Ivars
Bergmanis will be the single largest shareholder with a 49 percent stake of the
company.

“Despite the general availability of research suitable for retail investors,
there is clearly a shortage of comprehensive analysis that meets the particular
needs of professional, institutional investors,” says Ivars Bergmanis, Managing
Director of Emerging Nordic Research. “The Baltics are a part of Northern
Europe and have strong ties to the other ‘traditional' Nordic countries. I
believe the Baltic region can ultimately bounce back to robust rates of
economic growth as before the financial meltdown.”

Emerging Nordic Research will focus on the leading companies traded on the
NASDAQ OMX Baltic exchanges, with the first reports scheduled for this summer.
The research will only be available to institutional and professional investors
and will concentrate on investment ideas, not the usual investment
recommendations of buy, sell and hold. Revenues will be generated primarily
through commission sharing agreements between the client and the agency
executing trades, as well as bespoke research services. The shareholder
agreement includes principles that guarantee the company's day-to-day
independence from the exchanges.

Hans-Ole Jochumsen, Executive Vice President and President NASDAQ OMX Nordic
said, “The idea of setting up an independent research company dedicated to
covering the Baltic markets, with the goal of improving liquidity levels, has
been in our minds for some time. This seemed a suitable time to take our idea
into action and we expect this to be beneficial for all market participants.”
