Over-The-Counter (OTC) market, an integral part of the financial landscape, operates outside traditional stock exchanges. OTC trading typically involves stocks not listed on major exchanges. In OTC trading, transactions are managed directly between two parties without the supervision of an exchange. It allows greater flexibility and potentially lower transaction costs, but lacks the transparency of traditional exchange-based markets. It’s imperative for investors to understand the nuances of the OTC market to make informed decisions.#25#
