RTS Desktop Online Market Information System

The RTS Stock Exchange offers its clients a new online information system - RTS Desktop.

RTS Desktop is a program that delivers online market data directly to a user's screen. Having once loaded the program from the RTS Web site, a user can receive information directly, without an Internet browser.

Two RTS Desktop versions are currently available:

• RTS Complete Desktop - provides data on all RTS markets, the most liquid securities' online quotes and indices dynamics (click here to see what RTS Complete Desktop would look like on your screen)
• RTS Basic Desktop - provides data similar to that available on the RTS Stock Exchange Web site main page (click here to see what RTS Basic Desktop would look like on your screen).

How to Install RTS Desktop on Your Computer

• If you are using Internet Explorer (version 4.0 and higher), please click on the 'RTS Complete Desktop' or 'RTS Basic Desktop' button, - depending on which version you would like to install. Both versions can be installed on the same computer. During the installation all questions from the program-installer should be answered "OK".
