A National Securities Exchange is a regulated marketplace where securities are bought and sold, operating under the oversight of a national financial authority. These exchanges provide facilities for matching buyers and sellers, ensuring fair and orderly trading practices. They adhere to strict rules regarding listing requirements, market surveillance, and investor protection. Examples include the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq.
