NEW YORK and TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- OTC Markets Group Inc. (OTCQX: OTCM), operator of financial markets for 10,000 U.S. and global securities, today announced its sponsorship of two of Israel's leading business conferences—CFO Forum and EY Journey 2018 taking place on Sun., October 14 and Wed., October 17, 2018 respectively. Collectively, the programs bring together Israel's leading innovators, corporate leaders and key financial experts.
The October programming marks OTC Markets Group's second trip to Israel this year, following the April 30th informational program held in conjunction with the Canadian Securities Exchanges (CSE) and PwC. More recently, OTC Markets Group welcomed several new issuers from the region, joining an impressive roster of more than 70 Israeli companies that trade on our markets.
"OTC Markets Group is pleased to participate in these signature programs that highlight Israel's vast community of thought leaders, financial experts, early-stage companies and innovators of tomorrow," said Jason Paltrowitz, Executive Vice President of Corporate Services at OTC Markets Group.
"With today's increased global investing opportunities, it is important for Israeli and international issuers to understand that there are alternative options to staying private or going public on a national market. We are proud of the demonstrated success Israeli issuers have seen on our OTCQX and OTCQB markets and encourage more companies to utilize this efficient alternative to build North American visibility and gain secondary access to U.S. investors."
On October 14, 2018, OTC Markets Group will sponsor a CFO Forum professional meeting of technology companies convening in Tel Aviv. OTC Markets Group SVP, International Corporate Services, Chris King will discuss a recent study by Oxford Metrica that explores the value and liquidity impact within an international company's home market upon cross-trading on the OTCQX Market. The program will also focus on a more efficient approach for TASE-listed companies and Israel's portfolio of early-stage, growth-oriented and entrepreneurial companies looking to raise capital and access the U.S. capital markets.
