New York Stock Exchange – Non-Profit No More
March 7th, 2006
An editorial in
the New York Sun heralds the end of the New York Stock Exchange as “a member-owned not for profit.” Starting today, it is scheduled to become a company that is itself publicly traded on the exchange. “It’s the latest chapter in a remarkable New York story that began when stockbrokers gathered on May 17, 1792, under the shade of a buttonwood tree on Wall Street.”

I guess the hospitals are now the richest “non-profits.”

In reference to the above, the NYSE laid off 60 people late last year, decreased a couple of top salaries, watched a couple of executives leave and kicked out the building’s (subsidized) barber. Surely this isn’t unique to the NYSE as a public corporation, but at least I hear the staff are getting snazzy medallions to commemorate the conversion.
