Tampa real estate trust Sila wins bid for NYSE listing

Tampa based Sila Realty Trust has won approval to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

The REIT announced the decision Wednesday saying that it would begin trading on the exchange June 13 under the ticker symbol SILA. As is customary, the company’s management and board of directors will ring the opening bell that day.

“This is a significant milestone in our company’s history, as we believe the listing will introduce Sila to a large and diverse group of investors, offering access to scale capital, while also providing liquidity optionality for our current shareholders,” Sila’s president and CEO Michael A. Seton says in a note to investors.
