How Does a Stock Move from the OTC to a Major Exchange?
There are many reasons why a company may trade on the Over the Counter (OTC), which unlike a standard exchange, has no physical location, but it’s not an option that provides much exposure or even a lot of liquidity. Trading on a major exchange, though, does. But is there a way for companies to move from one to the other?
Key Takeaways
- OTC securities are not listed on an exchange, but trade through a broker-dealer network.
- Companies can jump from the OTC market to a major exchange as long as they meet listing and regulatory requirements, which vary by exchange.
- Exchanges must approve a company’s application to list, which should be accompanied by financial statements.
- Some companies choose to move to get the visibility and liquidity provided by a stock exchange.
- Dual listing ,by staying on the OTC and dual listing on a major exchange is a great option and is possible.
