It proposes that the integration of stock exchanges generated transformations within the brokerage sector, and affected companies in response pursue different strategies to remain competitive in the current state of affairs. In the case of Colombia, stock exchange integration through MILA has resulted into mergers between local brokerage firms, acquisitions from both national and international companies and changes in ownership. © 2015 Universidad ESAN.enghttps://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/publication/issn/2077-1886info:eu-repo/semantics/articleBrokerage firmsCapital marketsIntegrationLatin American Integrated MarketStock exchanges2020-12-03Yepes-Rios, B.Gonzalez-Tapia, K.Gonzalez-Perez, Maria Alejandra10.1016/j.jefas.2015.08.001
