ASX Limited
(ASX:ASX) has predicted the gradual return of investor confidence, as it unveiled a small drop in first half net profit.
Australia’s main share market operator turned in a net profit of $171.1 million, marking a 2.5 per cent drop on the year before.
The group will pay a fully franked interim dividend of 87.9 cents, also down on last year.
ASX CEO Elmer Funke Kupper believes better economic news coming out of the US and Europe provides for a greater level of share market stability.
