The OTCQB is considered by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an "established public market" for the purpose of determining the public market price when registering securities for resale with the SEC. The OTC Pink is not considered as such and most broker dealers will not trade or recommend OTC Pink stocks. Because the OTCQB dramatically increases transparency, reporting standards, management certification and compliance requirements, the majority of broker dealers trade stocks on the OTCQB. Historically this has resulted in greater liquidity and awareness for companies that reach the OTCQB tier.

Key elements and benefits of uplisting to the OTCQB include:

Companies must remain current and compliant in their reporting to the SEC
Minimum bid price test of $0.01 removes companies that are most likely to be the subject of dilutive stock fraud schemes and promotion
Improved investor confidence through verified information, confirming that the Company Profile displayed on www.otcmarkets.com is current and complete
Annual management certification process to verify officers, directors, controlling shareholders, and shares outstanding
Greater information availability for investors through the OTC Disclosure & News Service
Transparent prices for investors through full-depth of book with Real Time Level 2 quotes
