OTCQB listing opens U.S. retail and institutional access to Rio Silver shares

The OTCQB is a U.S. trading platform operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. for developing and entrepreneurial-stage companies. The Securities and Exchange Commission recognizes it as an "established public market" for determining the public market price when registering securities for resale.

Rio Silver says the listing gives U.S. retail and institutional investors improved access to its shares. The company frames the move as coming at a point when global silver production is decreasing and interest in pure-play silver producers is accelerating, particularly where the majority of the co-product is gold. The company provided no market data to support either claim.
