TEHRAN- TEDPIX, the main index of the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE), rose 14,063 points to 2,269,515 on Tuesday, which is the fourth day of the Iranian calendar week.<\/p>\n
TSE is one of the four Iranian stock exchanges, and the most important one. The other three ones are Iran Mercantile Exchange (IME), Iran Energy Exchange (IRENEX), and Iran\u2019s over-the-counter (OTC) market, known as Iran Fara Bourse (IFB).<\/p>\n
In mid-September, the head of Iran Securities and Exchange Organization (SEO) said the entity will take the necessary measures to ensure that the direct and indirect interests of the stock market are considered in next year\u2019s budget bill.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are taking special measures in relation to the budget bill and issues that directly or indirectly affect the capital market,\u201d Hojatollah Seyedi stated.<\/p>\n
He has also said that improving the stock market\u2019s efficiency is the main priority of the SEO in the current government administration<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the 14th government, our mission is to protect the rights and interests of shareholders, facilitate the formation of capital, and improve the efficiency of the market which is the priority of the SEO programs,\u201d Seyedi underlined.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe capacities of the capital market are huge and I believe that this market has room for a leap and now we are on the threshold of that leap,\u201d the official further noted.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow, in addition to great capital and capabilities of the companies, we have powerful workforces, investors and competent managers in the market, so there is no reason why our capital market should not develop and reach at least 300 to 400 billion dollars of gross domestic product,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Emphasizing that big steps should be taken in this regard, the official continued: \u201cI have decided to work to this end with high motivation to play a small role in the development of the country.\u201d<\/p>\n
The head of the Securities and Exchange Organization pointed to the capital market as a regulatory and supervisory body and said: \u201cIn this regard, our mission is to protect the rights of shareholders, promote market efficiency and facilitate capital formation, which are connected to each other like the sides of a triangle. But the question is, which of these factors can be the driving force as a more independent variable?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe important variable is the improvement of market efficiency, that is, the formation of more capital, which, in addition to increasing capital, also preserves the rights of shareholders,\u201d he finally said.<\/p>\n
In late January, the deputy governor of the Central Bank of Iran (CBI) stressed the need for diverse financing tools in the country, noting that such tools are currently being provided by the stock market.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo reduce the speculative and profit-seeking activities of dealers in the country, financing tools should be diversified,\u201d Mohammad Shirijian said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe capital market is an institution that directs capital to production in an efficient manner. Now, to accelerate the process of resource transfer and high productivity, the financing should be directed to the enterprises,\u201d the official explained.<\/p>\n
