What Investors Should Know
The OTCBB is a quotation medium for subscribing members, not an issuer listing service, and should not be confused with The Nasdaq Stock MarketSM.
There are no minimum quantitative standards which must be met by an issuer for its securities to be quoted on the OTCBB; however, the new Eligibility Rule limits quotations on the OTCBB to the securities of issuers that are current in their reports filed with the SEC or other regulatory authority.
Issuers do not have any filing or reporting requirements with The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., or the NASD. Market Makers will be required to provide the periodic financial reports filed by OTCBB issuers with the SEC or other regulatory authorities pursuant to the Eligibility Rule.
Nasdaq has no business relationship with the issuers of securities quoted on the OTCBB.
Investors must contact a broker/dealer to trade OTCBB securities. Investors do not have direct access to the OTCBB service.
The Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC's) Order-Handling Rules which apply to Nasdaq-listed securities do not apply to OTCBB securities. |
