The Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) is the largest stock exchange in Japan and one of the biggest in Asia, listing major companies like Toyota, Sony, and SoftBank. It plays a vital role in Japan’s economy and serves as a key financial hub for global investors interested in Asian markets. However, despite its importance, the TSE is not the largest exchange in the world by market capitalization. That distinction belongs to the New York Stock Exchange, which has a much greater aggregate market value of its listed companies. While the TSE is influential and significant in regional terms, particularly within Asia, it does not match the scale or global dominance of the NYSE. Understanding the size difference between exchanges helps clarify the economic influence and depth of capital markets across regions.
