About Nasdaq Stock Market.

Nasdaq Stock Market is the principal cash-equity venue of the United States. Founded in 1971, it operates under the oversight of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and its leading benchmarks are Nasdaq-100, Nasdaq Composite. Listing standards are set out in the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules.

The first fully electronic stock market, today the principal listing venue for technology, biotechnology, and growth issuers. Three tiers calibrate listing standards to issuer maturity.

02 · Eligibility
For Institutional Positions

What qualifies on Nasdaq.

Nasdaq ranks among the deepest equity pools anywhere; eligibility turns on the stock itself — its free float, daily traded volume, and how concentrated the line is.

For any given Nasdaq position, our review looks at: free float and daily traded volume against the size of the transaction; your status (controlling shareholder, director, substantial shareholder) and the disclosure that follows; the issuer’s sector and listing segment; and what the transaction must do (LTV, tenor, currency, recourse, custody).

03 · Disclosure
SEC

Framework cited on Nasdaq.

The principal regulatory reference on Nasdaq is Schedule 13D / 13G beneficial ownership reports under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. How it applies to any single transaction — reporting levels, step thresholds — turns on the underlying rules and national-law overlays, which we map against your contemplated transaction at the structuring stage alongside the counsel you appoint.

The citations above are public regulatory references, given for orientation only and not as legal advice. Take independent legal advice in the relevant jurisdiction for any specific transaction.

What holders ask about Nasdaq.

01How much can I borrow against a Nasdaq-listed holding?
The loan-to-value is set to the specific holding — free float, daily traded volume, volatility, and your regulatory standing. We quote indicative ratios only after reviewing the actual Nasdaq position.
02Which Nasdaq segments can I borrow against?
We look at each case across the segments Nasdaq Stock Market runs: Nasdaq Global Select Market; Nasdaq Global Market; Nasdaq Capital Market. Higher tiers are usually simpler to structure, as free float and liquidity are deeper.
03What currency can the facility be drawn in?
The default is USD, the listing currency. Cross-currency structures are common and readily arranged.
