NEW YORK, Oct. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- OTC Markets Group Inc. (OTCQX: OTCM), operator of financial markets for 10,000 U.S. and global securities, today announced the launch of the OTCQX® Canada Index (.OTCQXCAN), a new performance benchmark for Canadian companies on the OTCQX Best Market.
The OTCQX Canada Index is designed to highlight for investors the diversity of high-quality Canadian companies that meet the high financial, disclosure and corporate governance standards required to trade on the OTCQX market. These include large and small companies, representing a wide range of industries from metals and mining to life sciences and biotechnology. Eligible securities must be traded on OTCQX, listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), TSX Venture Exchange or Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) and meet a minimum liquidity screen. Penny stocks, as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 240.3a51-1, are not admitted to the index.
"The OTCQX market is home to more than 120 high-quality, investor-focused Canadian companies you won't find on the U.S. exchanges," said Jason Paltrowitz, Executive Vice President of OTC Markets Group. "With the launch of our OTCQX Canada Index, investors can now better identify and track the performance of these companies over time."
