DTCC Eligibility Allows for Efficient Electronic Clearing and Settlement of EMYSF Common Stock
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND–(Marketwire – January 3, 2013) – EasyMed Services Inc. (CNSX: EZM)(OTCBB: EMYSF)(MUN: EY6) (“EasyMed” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce today that it has secured Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) eligibility for the Company’s shares trading on Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol EMYSF.
As previously reported on September 28, 2012, the Company had commenced an application with the United States’ DTCC for book-entry-only (“BEO”) or “electronic” trading of the Company’s Over the Counter (OTC) securities.
“Becoming DTCC eligible simplifies how EasyMed’s securities may be traded or exchanged, providing market makers and brokerage firms an efficient means of moving and settling trades electronically, thereby providing our shareholders greater liquidity and an expansion of the types of investors who may now consider investing in our Company,” stated Mr. Jared Scharf, CFO and Director of EasyMed. “If a Company is non-DTCC eligible many institutions will not trade their stock or simply restrict it from being traded due to the amount of paperwork or manpower required to place and execute trades. Now that EasyMed is DTCC eligible our shares can be traded or exchanged electronically through brokerage firms throughout North America.”
“We are pleased to report we have completed the DTCC’s investigative process and have satisfied their requirements as an established Company with a solid business plan and management team poised for growth,” explains Mr. Tejinder Sahota, CEO of EasyMed. “This is a very important milestone for our Company as we begin to expand into the American markets and look forward to providing a vibrant market for US investors in their home country.”
