Another major Canadian exchange is the TSXV, also known as the Vancouver Stock Exchange. These two exchanges, along with other smaller exchanges, are subsidiaries of a larger company called TMX Group.

According to the latest statistics in 2024, TMX Group was the 10th largest stock exchange in the world in terms of market capitalization (approximately $3.21 trillion).

The TSX provides access to various markets, including equities, derivatives, fixed-income securities, and Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs).
