In addition to continuous trading with market making, the application called “Liquidity providing in the Equity Market”, developed with a view to contribute to the liquidity of equities with low traded value especially, was introduced on November 1, 2012.

Liquidity providing refers to an optional activity that aims to increase the liquidity, and therefore the tradability of equities, and not at ensuring price stability.

Liquidity  providing can be optionally applied to the equities on the BIST Stars and BIST Main, those not included in BIST 30 Index and ownership backed lease certificates, real estate certificates, participation certificates of venture capital investment funds and real estate investment funds on Structured Products and Funds Market (SPFM).

Liquidity providing, market making and single price method cannot be applied together on the same instrument. As the single price method is applied to the all equities on the Emerging Companies Market, Watch List (WL), Pre-Market Trading Platform (PMTP), liquidity providing cannot be performed on this markets.
