Frankfurt is the largest of Germany’s seven stock exchanges and it’s an international trading centre. Of about 200 market participants, roughly 50 are from countries other than Germany.
“The FSE facilitates advanced electronic trading, settlement and information systems, allowing it to meet the growing requirements of cross-border trading,” Pathway adds.
The healthcare company owns and operates nine community-based clinics in four Canadian provinces. Pathway says it services patients suffering from chronic pain and related conditions through evidence-based approaches and products, including medical cannabis.
