Milan Stock Exchange (MIL) .MI

Italy's primary securities market, the Milan Stock Exchange (in Italian, Borsa Italiana) traces its origins to the 1808 establishment of Milan's Borsa di Commercio (commodities exchange). The first company share was listed in 1859, and banking and railway companies joined the exchange in the 1870s. Electronic trading became fully operational in 1994, and the Exchange became privatized in 1998.
