Santiago Stock Exchange and TSX Venture Exchange announced they have entered into an agreement that will lead to the creation of a new venture exchange division of the Santiago Stock Exchange, called the Santiago Stock Exchange, Venture. The agreement will leverage the experience of TSXV, which specializes in facilitating capital formation for early-stage growth companies. It will also provide the opportunity for TSXV issuers to dual-list on the new market.

The Santiago Stock Exchange will seek regulatory approval for the Santiago Stock Exchange, Venture with a view to commencing operations in the first half of 2015. The project has also received strong support from the Chilean Ministry of Mining for the promotion of the market so that companies from throughout the region may be listed both in Chile and in Canada.
