This article seems very UK-centric, despite token mentions of South Africa and the US. Certainly the LSE is not the only exchange in the world to use market makers! Is there a survey article somewhere which describes the differences among the major systems of financial markets? (Besides the one described here, open outcry and electronic auction markets would seem to be the other major kinds. Have I missed any?) 18.24.0.120 20:57, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I agree with all you say but that is unimportant: Please, edit boldly! Psb777 03:01, 8 Feb 2004 (UTC)

What other stock exchanges have the LSE system of officially designated market makers? I'm sure you may be right but I know of none.

Open outcry and electronic auction markets do not have market makers in the same way as the LSE.

Hopefully someone who knows more than me will be here soon.

The NASDAQ Stock Market uses market makers, and is arguably at least as important as the London Stock Exchange.

OK, add it in. Don't wait for me. Psb777 07:01, 8 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Someone has added a great FAQ but it looks like a cut'n'paste job and so there might be a copyright violation. What is the source of the material? Paul Beardsell 14:11, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)

OK. I found the source and it has a copyright notice. I have deleted theFAQ and replace it with a link to the source. Paul Beardsell 00:28, 24 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

I added in some more U.S.-centric information on market-makers. This is my first edit so please let me know if there's some issue with it. rJames383

Material out of date

The material on this page seems out of date. Last edits were in June 2006. Someone knowledgeable (definitely not me!) should edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.200.128.3 (talk) 20:18, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
