The Stock Exchange, Mumbai (BSE) set-up a regional hub at Kolkata on September 19, 2003 which was inaugurated by Mr. S.C. Das, Executive Director, SEBI.

The hub in Kolkata will provide member-brokers and their sub-brokers in the region an extremely low cost connectivity to BSE systems in Mumbai and will help the Exchange to reach out to more intermediaries and investors in Kolkata and surrounding areas.

The hub will provide fault tolerant, economical, and high speed connectivity to the BSE On-line Trading (BOLT) system and Derivatives Trading and Settlement System (DTSS) of the Exchange. Member brokers can connect multiple terminals on a single local lease line connectivity to the hub.

With this initiative BSE has come closer to market participants in Kolkata.
