Kathmandu December 22- Public investors will be able to see market depth from next Sunday. NEPSE had decided to make such arrangement to make capital market more transparent and informative toward general investors. After completion, general public can easily analyze the market depth from the website of NEPSE while market is trending.

General Manager of NEPSE, Mr. Sitaram Thapaliya stated that construction of technical infrastructure is in final phase and will be publicized soon so that the public investor may easily access the market dept which is currently accessible to securities brokers only. He claimed that the facility may be available within a week.  

After the system is set up, public investors will be able to get all the information regarding the market while market is open.  Market depth provides information regarding purchase and sale of stock of any company, market price of the stock, total demand, total supply including other information related to share transactions.  Based on the information, investors can make their investment decisions in time.  It will help to minimize risks of possible losses. Investor all over the world has access to market depth which is believed to make capital market strong and transparent.

Currently, investors receive information through floor seat but have not access to market information while market is trending. NEPSE was seeking permission with Securities board of Nepal to publicized market dept for last 2 years. Securities board granted such permission recently allowing the public investors to dive into market depth before taking any investment decision.
