Comparison of Shanghai Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange

Abstract

The aim of the thesis was to compare Shanghai Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange, focusing on facts and indicators of them. The conclusion is that they both have tough histories and self-regulatory systems. NYSE is founded earlier and always perform better than SSE, taking the stability of increasing trend and the number itself into account. In recent years, the differences become smaller, but there are still room for SSE to do better. COVID-19 caused some changes in their regulation and stock prices. Financial disintermediation is a popular trend. As SSE is working on stricter regulation and supervision, we should believe it will become better and better in the future, as NYSE will continue to develop steadily and rapidly.
