Age of leading exchanges worldwide 2025
As of 2025, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange was the oldest existing stock exchange, having been in operation for 440 years. The youngest major exchange at this time was the Korea Exchange, which has been in operation for 20 years. Note these values refer to stock market operators, meaning historical exchanges in places like as the Amsterdam or Paris are counted from the founding of the Euronext, not from when the original stock exchange was founded in that city.
