In OTC markets, transactions are mainly entered into between two parties through private negotiations.

Well-known OTC markets in the world include the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) and the OTC Pink Market (pink sheets) in the US; the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in the UK; the over-the-counter market (CMF) and Paris New Market in France; the over-the-counter market in South Korea; the China Interbank Bond Market, etc.
