Investing in the stock market can be a laborious task. Reading the latest research, calling up your broker, watching the latest trends on financial TV channels, subscribing to the Financial Times or reading Investment Week or Investors Chronicle.

There is of course AIM (Alternative Investment Market) launched in 1995, which lists a diverse range of smaller companies; but there is also NEX (formerly known as ICAP) – which some might say is a direct competitor to AIM.
NEX Exchange originated in the mid-1990s in the form of OFEX. It was set up to offer companies easy access to public market financing, and to offer investors access to interesting growth-focussed companies.
