London Stock Exchange eyes overnight trading launch in 2027: FT
The move comes as traditional exchanges face growing competition from crypto markets and tokenized equity platforms that offer around-the-clock trading.
The London Stock Exchange is planning to launch a night-time trading venue in the first half of 2027, joining a growing number of global exchanges offering or planning near-24-hour trading.
According to a report from the Financial Times, the LSE’s new venue will operate separately from its main market and run from 5:00 pm to 7:50 am London time. It will initially offer access to exchange-traded products such as those tracking the UK or US stock market.
