POV: Are Publicly Traded Exchanges Sticking It To You? Jim Kharouf - JLN There is a recurring criticism of publicly traded exchanges - that they are not serving the needs of their customers, all to satisfy shareholders. Such was the essence of the argument by James Andrus, an investment manager from CalPERS, the California pension and investment giant. On a panel at the World Federation of Exchanges annual meeting last week in Athens, he said stock exchanges are bending to the desires of listed companies on their exchanges on proxy voting rule changes and other policy changes at the expense of investor firms like his. And the motivation, he said, was that exchanges are "for profit" companies reaching for revenue. Sandy Frucher, vice chairman of Nasdaq, was having none of it. In a blistering rebuttal he said today's publicly traded exchanges are more regulated and more transparent than they have ever been. He added that criticisms of today's exchanges are often misguided, especially as compared to the prior privately-held member run exchanges. He likened those exchanges to a "circus tent" where all the business conducted was aimed at serving the member firms, often to the detriment of the customers.
