Lazio have announced on Monday that they now have their very own ticker (LZO) reserved at Nasdaq.

Since the summer, the Biancocelesti have been in talks with the New York-based company, which is considered one of the largest stock exchanges in the world. This initiative has been spearheaded by Lazio director, Enrico Lotito, the son of club president Claudio Lotito.

The 28-year-old opened a dialogue with Nasdaq’s representatives last July. The American company marked the occasion by displaying Lazio’s badge on its headquarters to celebrate the club’s 125th birthday.

Last week, Lotito Jr. returned to New York to take part in the Closing Bell ceremony, which was considered a historic occasion by the club. But aside from the folklore, Lazio are working on getting listed on Nasdaq, so the club’s shares can be traded worldwide.

While this project requires a certain process, the Italian capital side has already made the first steps. As confirmed by a statement published on the club’s official website, Nasdaq has reserved the ‘LZO’ ticker for Lazio, while the club awaits the final approval.

SS Lazio announces that Nasdaq has reserved the ticker “LZO” for SS Lazio SpA, a significant step that marks a new chapter in the Club’s growth and international expansion.

The ticker’s change represents a concrete sign of a broader project, one that looks to the future and connects the world of football with innovation, the media, and international finance, while maintaining Lazio’s values, history, and identity.

$LZO – Work in Progress

Lazio are already a publicly traded company listed on the Borsa Italiana (the Milan Stock Exchange), but getting listed on Nasdaq would open up international doors for the club. Nasdaq’s stable already features thousands of companies, including heavyweights like Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet (Google), Meta and Nvidia.
