Exchange Act Rule 15c2-11 (the “Rule”) governs the publication or submission of quotations by broker-dealers in a quotation medium other than a national securities exchange (i.e., the OTC market). The Rule generally prohibits a broker-dealer from publishing a quotation for any security in a quotation medium unless the broker-dealer has reviewed current and publicly available information about the issuer whose security is the subject of the quotation, and the broker-dealer believes this information is accurate and obtained from a reliable source. Municipal securities and other “exempt securities” (e.g., government securities, Treasury securities) are not subject to the Rule.
