Increasing foreign investor exposure

These firms already file all disclosures in English. In addition, over the past year, some 20 companies have filed specific disclosures in English. Only those reports that have been filed in English will be on the English website.

TASE has 436 companies with a total market value of $203 billion at the end of May 2020, according to data provided by the exchange.

“TASE places great importance in the publication of disclosures in both English and Hebrew and believes that this will increase foreign investor exposure to and investment of in TASE-listed Israeli companies,” the statement said.
