  • FINRA Makes Dark Pool Data Available Free To The Investing Public

    Date 02/06/2014

    As part of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)'s effort to increase market transparency and thereby enhance investor confidence, FINRA today began providing data indicating the activity levels in each alternative trading system (ATS), including all market facilities commonly called "dark pools." This important information will shed light on the securities that are traded in each "dark pool," which occurs away from traditional stock exchanges. While the trades in these facilities are made available on a real-time basis to investors and professionals today through securities information processors (SIPs), these trades are not attributed to a specific ATS or "dark pool." Under FINRA's new transparency initiative, the public will now be able to see the total shares traded each week by security in each ATS or "dark pool." This data will be provided to the non-professional investing public free of charge and is available through FINRA's website. ATSs account for a significant percentage of total OTC trading in exchange-listed equities in the United States. Currently over 30 percent of the total National Market System volume of shares traded occurs over the counter.
