OTC securities are traded through broker-dealer networks, but aren’t as regulated as companies on larger exchanges. They tend to be less transparent and are often a much riskier investment, as they don’t have to meet minimum standards. They also generally have lower trade volumes, meaning it can be harder to sell the shares if an investor wants to get out. Most importantly, there’s dramatically less public information available about OTC companies, which makes them more vulnerable to fraud schemes.
