Goldman Sachs SIGMA X™ Form ATS and FAQs

Goldman Sachs has had a longstanding position with respect to transparency of exchanges and ATSs and first advocated for an SEC rule requiring that Form ATSs be made public in a comment letter filed in June 2010 relating to the SEC’s Concept Release on Equity Market Structure. The letter is available on the SEC website:  http://www.sec.gov/comments/s7-02-10/s70210-243.pdf

Since that time, the firm has continued to advocate for transparency of market venues, most recently in the Wall Street Journal Op-Ed article published in April: http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702303563304579447692855042948
