These services include market surveillance, web hosting, and analytics, among others, and are provided by third-party vendors. The purpose of this expansion is to help NYSE stay competitive in attracting new listings and transfers by offering extended benefits similar to those provided by Nasdaq. The approval ensures that the rule is transparent and does not discriminate unfairly among companies.

    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has received a proposal from BOX Exchange LLC to amend Rule 5055 to allow for cash settlement of certain customized FLEX Equity Options where the underlying security is an Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). This amendment aims to broaden investment options and potentially shift some over-the-counter market trading onto the exchange. To ensure stability, the cash settlement will only apply to ETFs that meet specific liquidity criteria. The SEC has waived the typical 30-day waiting period for the rule to take effect, citing that similar proposals have already been approved for other exchanges.

    Simple Explanation

    Imagine a store where people buy and sell toys. Now, BOX Exchange LLC wants to make a new rule that would let people buy and sell special toy coupons using money instead of trading actual toys. This idea will only happen if the toys (called ETFs) are popular enough, like the top 50 favorite ones, to make sure everything goes smoothly.
