The history of the London Stock Exchange

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The London Stock Exchange has agreed a merger with the main German share market, Deutsche Boerse. It's a new chapter in the colourful history of the stock exchange in London, which dates back almost 350 years. Our reporter Ramzan Karmali has been tracing some of that history, and finding out what the merger might mean for the City of London. (Picture: The City of London around Exchange Alley.
