TRANSCRIPT Tragedy at the Pakistan Stock Exchange while the parish enjoys an unprecedented level in the Barron's top 25 CEO list. Meanwhile the EU are considering a consolidated tape once again, and European markets push back on the London lazy binary of shorter equity trading times. My name is Patrick L Young: Welcome to the bourse business weekly digest. it's the Exchange Invest Weekly Podcast. The parish was rocked this week as seven people were killed including four gunmen who attacked the Pakistan Stock Exchange. Fortunately, no exchange staff were injured but a series of security personnel died in a gunfight across the foyer of the exchange. The Balochistan Liberation Army, which targets Chinese interests in Pakistan in pursuit of its ideals of a better deal for the oil and gas interests of Balochistan was responsible for the attack admitted in various social media posts.    Nonetheless, that didn't stop the Pakistani Prime Minister saying he had no doubt that India was behind the stock exchange attack. Hardly the most encouraging angle for, well, public relations given the current state of Sino Indian relations, and indeed the ever festering relationship between India and Pakistan. Nonetheless, we stand behind anyone who tries a terrorist attack on our parish. To that end, once again, our condolences to all those innocently murdered by these terrorists.    Back in the happier world of the parish’s business week, CCP 12 the global Clearinghouse organization released an excellent study “CCPs again demonstrate strong resilience in times of crisis. The laser like focus of CCP 12 on speaking up for the clearing parishioners, after their worth has been proven once again, goes well alongside the European EACH CCP’s regional precision, having helped Croatia's EU Presidency to achieve a sensible EU 27 solution.
