Trading of stocks in three new TSE market segments— Prime, Standard, and Growth — began at the Tokyo Stock Exchange on Monday morning. This is the first major realignment in about 60 years of the TSE’s First Section, Second Section, JASDAQ, and Mothers markets. The restructuring aims to attract investment by tightening listing standards, leading to corporate growth.
