Since January 2003, only two segments have existed in the EU-regulated stock market of Deutsche Börse AG, the General Standard and the Prime Standard. While the General Standard merely calls for the satisfaction of certain statutory minimum requirements, companies listed within the Prime Standard are required to meet higher-level transparency and other criteria, such as quarterly reports, internationally accepted accounting standards, active investor relations. The Entry Standard as a third segment includes OTC equities and is regulated by Deutsche Börse AG itself. Vossloh stock has qualified for the Prime Standard as long as since December 2002.
