Penny Stock Reform Act

    0.03 sec.
Penny Stock Reform Act
A 1990 congressional act that expanded the SEC's authority over previously unregulated promoters who associate with broker-dealers to sell penny stocks. The act also placed restrictions on blank check offerings and required broker-dealers to disclose more information about penny stocks to customers. Perhaps most importantly, the act called for the creation of an automated quotation system for OTC stocks.
