Explanation

The London Stock Exchange (LSE) was the largest stock exchange in Europe by market capitalization and trading volume during the 2004-2005 period. While Euronext and Deutsche Boerse are major competitors, LSE historically held the top position in the European equity market. Frankfurt is the largest in Germany but smaller than London on a continental scale.
