What is a stock transfer agent?
A stock transfer agent manages and maintains the records of a company's shares. The agent is responsible for transferring the ownership of shares from the seller's name to the buyer's name. The transfer agent also determines the stockholders of record, ensures all stocks are properly accounted for and that dividend payments are made to stockholders of record. The transfer agent does not maintain records of shares bought and sold through brokerage accounts. (Such stock is said to be held in "street name.") Those records are maintained by the brokerage firms through which the shares are bought and sold.

What types of companies are quoted OTC?
There are a wide variety of companies quoted on OTC. There are small companies that cannot or do not wish to meet the listing requirements of the exchanges; there are many large foreign issuers that are listed on an exchange in their home country but traded OTC in the US market (often because their financial statements are not prepared according to GAAP, which is a requirement for US listing); many OTC companies were formerly listed on an exchange and fell below the required standards for listing; due to the increased compliance costs associated with the Sarbanes/Oxley legislation, some listed companies have voluntarily delisted from exchanges and chosen to be traded over-the-counter; and there are a number of banks and other issuers that are thinly traded and so choose not to go to the expense of listing on an exchange.
