Double listing
The listing of a security on more than one exchange.
Companies become listed on a second exchange in order to reach a broader-based public and attract additional investors. Because the fragmentation of share capital between different exchanges often results in diminished liquidity, companies usually undertake a capital increase in connection with a double listing.
