Market Chatter: ASX's Equity Post-Trade Pricing Model Changes May Increase Revenue, UBS Says

By

Changes to ASX's (ASX:ASX) equity post-trade pricing model might raise revenues even if turnover moderates, according to UBS analyst Kieren Chidgey, the Australian Financial Review reported Thursday.

Chidgey increased earnings forecasts by around 6% across fiscal year 2027 and fiscal year 2028. He expects futures revenue to exceed market forecasts by 10% to 11% over these years.

UBS upgraded its recommendation to buy and raised the price target to AU$65.20 per share.
