In terms of trading, as the above table shows, Medvešek Pušnik has persistently been amongst the top brokerage companies in Slovenia. The fact that there were 62 stock exchange members in 1993, while there were only 26 left in June 2006 indicates how harsh the competition actually is. The company has maintained its position of being the leading manager of individual security portfolios since 1994. The security portfolios managed by us are distinguished mainly by a high safety level and yield stability, these two distinctive features form the basis of the brokerage house development strategy. In November 2002 the company commenced its business operations on foreign stock exchanges. Hence, our turnover further increased, which is strategic advantage over competing companies. Consequently, we recorded extremely high foreign trading volumes during a time of extremely low local stock exchange turnover. This means, that a comparison amongst Ljubljana Stock Exchange members in terms of their reductions in turnover loses is less relevant to our company.
