Manama: A new website (www.bahrainbourse.com) with enhancements in design and content has been launched by Bahrain Bourse (BHB).
The new website features various improvements including browsing, navigation, interactivity and facilitates the searching process on static pages or pages containing dynamic statistical data.
Various information, data, and services are accessible handily along with advanced searching tools that help save time and enhance the decision-making process for related parties by displaying tables of prices, performance of shares, indices, and an information board.
The website also offers technical analysis and quick access to advanced charts for share prices for durations up to three years by using advanced technology provided by NetDania, a leading analytics firm.
The new website allows investors to create their own page and customise it to directly view their portfolios and any shares, bonds/sukuk, and treasury bills deposited in the account.
Investors can also see the transactions they have made, and use an electronic calculator to calculate the fees related to the settlement and central depository.
Users can also view the latest news regarding companies’ disclosures, market messages issued by the bourse, as well as the latest GCC, Arab, and global financial news that are displayed in co-operation with CNBC News.
In addition, the website allows investors to view detailed information about their orders according to price and volume as well as detailed tables on transactions according to price, volume, and timing.
BHB chief executive Shaikh Khalifa bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa said the launch of the new website was in line with BHB’s comprehensive strategy aimed at developing all aspects of work at the bourse.
“While developing the design of the new website, we were keen to use the latest technology in this field to transfer BHB, through its new website, from a traditional website with information about the bourse to an advanced and innovative website with an interactive interface that provides comprehensive solutions to its clients.
“We have co-operated with specialised companies, both in technical analysis and financial and economic news to enhance the content of the website and maximise its benefits to users,” he added.
