Characteristics of the OTC Market:
- The OTC market facilitates direct trading between two parties, bypassing the need for a central exchange as an intermediary.
- Unlike traditional exchanges, the OTC market does not have a physical location or a designated market maker.
- A wide range of financial products is commonly traded in the OTC market, including bonds, derivatives, structured products, and currencies.
