The place of the company in the ranking is determined by the value of so- called activity indicator (Ka), which is calculated for each member of the exchange. The first position in the rating corresponds to the highest value of Ka. The given indicator for corporate bonds market operators is calculated by the formula: Ka = V + N + D + 0,8*A, where: V - the indicator of volume of the deals, enclosed by the rating member of the exchange with corporate bonds for the analyzed period on the secondary KASE market by open trades' method;; V = Vi / Vmax, where Vi - is the volume of deals, enclosed by the rating company for the period, Vmax - the highest volume of deals. Enclosed by any member of KASE for the same period (without consideration of the National Bank); N - the indicator of the number of deals, enclosed by the rating member of the exchange with corporate bonds for the analyzed period on KASE secondary market by open trades' method; N = Ni / Nmax, where Ni - is the number of deals, enclosed by rating company for the period, Nmax - the highest amount of deals, enclosed by any member of KASE for the same period (without consideration of the National Bank); D - the indicator of the amount of resulting days of rating member of the exchange in the analyzed period (the resulting is the day, during which the rating member of the exchange had enclosed at least one deal with corporate bonds by open trades method on KASE secondary market); D = Di / Dmax, where Di - is amount of resulting days of rating member of the exchange, D(max) - the highest amount of resulting days, fixed for the analyzed period for any KASE member; A - the indicator of control accounts'; quantity, used by the rating member of the exchange in the analyzed period; A = Ai / Amax, where Ai - is the amount of control accounts, which were used by the rating member of the exchange while making of deals in the analyzed period, A(max) - the highest amount of used control accounts, fixed for the analyzed period on any member of KASE The Vi, Ni, Di, Ai, Vmax, Nmax, Dmax, Amax indicators are the specific indicators, that is are calculated as the ration of volume of deals (amount of deals, amount of resulting days or the number of control accounts) to number of days in the analyzed period, during which this participant of traded was the member of exchange of the given category. Thus, is grading the dependence of values of the indicators from the duration of KASE member work on the exchange.
