    The Long-Term Stock Exchange, Inc. (LTSE) filed a proposal with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to implement new connectivity fees for market participants. Previously, LTSE did not charge for connectivity, but due to the costs incurred from launching a new trading system, it plans to start charging fees effective October 1, 2024. These fees include charges for physical connections and logical connectivity sessions, with certain discounts for Disaster Recovery and Test Environment connections.
