ISX Managing Director and CEO John Karantzis said: "We are delighted to be a strategic shareholder in the NSX, which operates NSXA, Australia's second-largest Tier 1 market venue.

With this investment and iSignthis' technology platforms, we have the capability to develop an Australian version of Nasdaq, and become a competitive alternative to the ASX".

NSX and ISX are working on a platform that will support NSXA's transformation to a globally competitive stock exchange. An exchange that will pursue the capabilities to offer market users shorter settlement periods and more efficient trade and post trade environments than other domestic and global exchanges.

NSX Director, Mr Tom Price stated "We are pleased that ISX will be investing in NSX so as to realise the opportunity to build this platform which will enhance our existing business and provide a greater range of services to listed entities, participants and other potential users of financial markets infrastructures ."
