The Vienna Stock Exchange has launched its Bosnian Traded Index (BATX), a capitalisation-weighted price index including the most actively traded stocks with the highest market capitalisation of the Sarajevo and Banja Luka exchanges. The joint index project marks the second cooperation venture for the Vienna Stock Exchange - the first was joint data vending.

Stadia Trustees and Ipswich Building Society have launched the Ipswich SIPP, aimed at networks and financial advisers in the East Anglia region, although investors anywhere in the UK can access it. The SIPP gives full access to the array of HMRC permitted investments, and also embraces the FSA's Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) initiative and is Retail Distribution Review (RDR) ready.
