    The London Stock Exchange (LSE) is one of the oldest stock exchanges in the world and the largest in Europe. It began in 1698 when broker John Castaing began posting stock and commodity prices at Jonathan's Coffee House. Over time, the LSE established rules and membership fees. In 1986, the Big Bang deregulated the LSE by eliminating fixed commissions, separating trading from advising, and encouraging free market competition.
