Based on Xalq Bank’s application, the Baku Stock Exchange has admitted the bank as a member starting from August 25, 2025. With this, the number of member companies of the Baku Stock Exchange has increased to thirteen.

Xalq Bank has become the first bank in the country to obtain a license for carrying out investment services. According to License No. IХB-01 issued by Central Bank of the Republic of Azerbaijan on May 7, 2025, Xalq Bank was granted authorization to conduct investment services (operations) in the country.

This significant step marks the beginning of a new stage in the country’s banking sector. The license enables Xalq Bank to offer a wide range of financial services. By doing so, the bank will provide its clients with broader opportunities in the capital markets, allowing them to conduct securities transactions and access other capital market services directly through the bank.

The Baku Stock Exchange aims to foster an enabling environment that supports sustainable development and stability by promoting transparency, accountability, and market integrity.
