Foreign firms allowed to trade in Copenhagen

To lure more international investors to the Copenhagen Stock Exchange the board has decided to allow foreign companies' shares to be traded on Denmark's benchmark KFX Index.

The changes will be implemented by April 30, before discussing the index's composition in May, said Hans Ole Jochumsen, chief executive. Any new entries will take effect on June 19, he added.
