Sumario:The Mongolian Stock Exchange and Hong Kong manufacturer Varitronix International are working on a wireless system to help Mongolian stockholders to trade, according to Naidansurengen Zolzhargal, chief executive of the Mongolian Stock Exchange. Zolzhargal hopes to adapt a Varitronix-made customer input terminal, used by Hong Kong people to place horse-race bets, for financial transactions, including share dealings.
