Published on:
March 7, 2016

SIFMA provides comment to the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) on proposed Regulation of NMS Stock Alternative Trading Systems. The U.S. equity markets are the deepest, most liquid and most efficient in the world, with investors enjoying extraordinarily low transaction costs, narrow spreads, and fast execution speeds. SIFMA believes there are aspects of market structure that could be enhanced through steps designed to decrease unnecessary market complexity, increase transparency of market information, and promote fairness in access.
