CSE Receives Membership in World Federation of Exchanges
On June 4, the CSE was approved for full membership in the World Federation of Exchanges ("WFE"). The WFE represents more than 250 market infrastructure providers and is a leading advocate on issues critical to the exchange industry, including market structure, capital raising, regulation and sustainability. WFE membership supports the global capital formation and liquidity goals of CSE issuers, and advances management's objective of facilitating global access to trading on the Exchange.

What's On at the CSE
The CSE team is traveling Down Under this week to meet with members of Australia's capital markets community, including issuers, investment dealers and other business leaders. The road show is focused on market access for CSE securities. It builds on a special Australia-focused market open ceremony, featuring numerous Australian delegates, that the Exchange hosted at its headquarters during the PDAC conference in March. During that ceremony, representatives from the CSE, Iress and other industry partners discussed key developments that will improve the global positioning of CSE-listed mining companies as they seek capital and liquidity in Australia and around the world. One of those developments was WFE membership, which the CSE subsequently received in June, as noted above.
The CSE is excited to be participating in Canada's Farm Show in Regina, Saskatchewan on June 18-20. The annual convention, presented by Viterra, is one of the largest agricultural events in North America, with more than 20,000 attendees from over 50 countries. The conference showcases the latest agricultural equipment and technology and connects producers to buyers. The CSE team will be welcoming conference participants at both #11188 in the Viterra International Trade Centre - Hall #11.
