The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC is proposing to change the credits they offer for certain stock transactions. Currently, there's a credit of $0.0030 per share for members providing substantial liquidity, but Nasdaq wants to add a new, slightly lower credit of $0.00295 per share for members meeting less strict volume requirements. This is meant to encourage more trading activity and improve the quality of the market by providing incentives for adding liquidity, especially in securities not listed on Nasdaq or NYSE. The changes are designed to be competitive and fair, with the understanding that participants dissatisfied with the credits can choose to trade elsewhere.

This document is a notice from the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding a proposed change by NYSE American LLC to their transaction fees and credits on the NYSE American Equities Price List. The proposed changes involve amending the fees for Electronic Designated Market Makers (eDMMs) who agree to certain conditions for providing liquidity in assigned securities. To encourage more quoting and liquidity provision, the Exchange is offering a new higher monthly rebate of $1,250 per assigned security for eDMMs meeting specific quoting thresholds. The Commission is seeking public comments on these changes, which are intended to make the marketplace more competitive by attracting more order flow.
