DSE officials said non-listed securities were awaiting approval under the alternative trading rules formulated and brought into effect by Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) in March 2020.

Having the securities registered with the ATB, BSEC Chairman Shibli Rubayat Ul Islam will launch the trading on the platform.

There is no minimum capital requirement for non-listed companies to be traded on the ATB.

Any non-listed firm registered with the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms (RJSC) will be allowed on the board. But the platform will not be used to raise capital. Only shares will be exchanging hands in electronic form.

Investors will avail A+2 trading facility meaning they will be able to sell shares on the third day of purchase. They will also enjoy credit facility in purchasing units of open-end mutual funds.

The mandatory provision of disclosing price sensitive information (PSI) will be applicable to the securities on the board, but on a yearly basis.

As per the rules, a company will have to transfer up to 49 per cent of its stakes with 10 per cent transferred within the first month.

"The ATB will be an alternative channel for the distribution of the units of open-end mutual funds," said Shahidul Islam, chief executive officer of the VIPB Asset Management Companies.

Both investors and the MFs will benefit from the scope of purchase and selloff of units at the net asset value (NAV).

The ATB will also allow negotiated deals between two parties outside the board.

Stock market shares are generally bought and sold in market lots, which are easy to trade. Any number of shares less than the market lot makes an odd lot. Odd lots typically arise from bonus or rights issues.
