22 Sep 2026 OTC Link LLCOTC Link: 575,000 USD – security policies never completed despite examination findings USACritical infrastructure €501,614

From 2016 to 2025, the operator of the OTC Link ATS trading system lacked complete policies on systems security, access control and vulnerability management as required under Regulation SCI. Although the examiners of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had criticised the gaps in several examinations, drafts remained unfinished; the SEC issued a censure and imposed 575,000 USD.

What organisations can take from it

Track supervisory examination findings with a deadline and a responsible person – points that remain open repeatedly become expensive.
