About Tokyo Stock Exchange

The Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) is Asia's largest stock exchange by market capitalisation and one of the three largest in the world. Established in 1878, the TSE merged with the Osaka Securities Exchange in 2013 to form Japan Exchange Group (JPX). The exchange lists over 3,700 companies across its Prime, Standard, and Growth market segments. Japan's two key indices — the Nikkei 225 and the broader TOPIX — are among the world's most watched market benchmarks.
