New York, July 16, 2013 - NYSE Technologies, the commercial technology division of NYSE Euronext, today announced that it has reached an agreement with market-maker, Citadel Securities LLC, to offer the Citadel Securities Grey Sheet OTC Quote feed via SuperFeed™.  Available now, the Grey Sheet feed provides actionable real-time quotes for approximately 6,500 international OTC equity securities not found on any exchange but actively traded by investors around the world.  

"Through our unique services and market making expertise, Citadel Securities' clients can utilize innovative, centralized solutions that help them   reach their investing goals," said Jamil Nazarali, Citadel Securities, Senior Managing Director.  "Collaborating with a leader in market data and global infrastructure like NYSE Technologies allows us to dramatically increase the distribution and performance of our Grey Sheet data feed.  By connecting to SuperFeed we can provide a core OTC offering to a much broader segment of investors with speed, reliability and confidence."
