The Athens Stock Exchange or ASE (Greek: Χρηματιστήριο Αξιών Αθηνών or ΧΑΑ) is a stock exchange located in Athens, Greece. It was first opened in 1876. Until 2007, it was located in Psiris, an area near the city centre in a street called Sofocleous Street. This is why it is also called Sofocleous. That building was rented, so they decided to buy a new place and move. Now it resides in its new headquarters designed by Babis Vovos Constructions in Athinon Street also called Kavalas Street. In July 2007 the Greek parliament made the appropriate agreement that will allow ASE (Athens Stock Exchange) to enter the European stock exchange market, and join the benefits of other major stock exchanges of the European union.
