TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Facedrive Inc. (“Facedrive”) (TSXV: FD) a “people-and-planet first” business is pleased to announce that the company has applied to trade on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FWB”) Deutsche Börse AG and the OTCQX® Best Market operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. (OTCQX: OTCM).
The Frankfurt Stock Exchange is the 10th largest stock exchange in the world and the 3rd largest stock exchange in Europe by market capitalization (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_stock_exchanges). Facedrive has applied to list its shares on Börse Frankfurt, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange’s trading venue for mainly private investors with more than one million securities of German and international issuers. Listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange provides European and International investors with easy access to Facedrive shares.
The OTC Markets Group Inc. operates financial markets for 10,000 U.S. and global securities. Facedrive is already trading in the US OTC market, and since the company meets its high eligibility standard, Facedrive has decided to apply to the OTCQX. The OTCQX Best Market is designed for established, investor-focused U.S. and international companies. To qualify for OTCQX, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance, and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities laws. The OTCQX Best Market is an important milestone for companies, enabling them to demonstrate high standards and build visibility among U.S. investors.
“The Frankfurt Stock Exchange and OTCQX listings would provide convenient access for our securities to US, European and International investors,” said Sayan Navaratnam, Chairman and CEO of Facedrive. “It’s very important for us that this is happening simultaneously with our US and European expansion plans. We want to ensure that US and European investors can access our securities just as easily as US and European consumers and businesses can access our ecosystem of socially and environmentally responsible services.”
