TSX Listing for Sale Fully Deliverable!

We have a TSX listed client fully deliverable willing to look at a buyer.TSX Companies typically are ideal structures for financing: 

– mining companies
– oil and gas companies
– utility companies
– software companies
– resource based deals

Financing within Canada also comes with the added benefit of Canadian tax incentive programs such as flow-through shares. Canadian firms are both highly desired for investment within the US, Australia, and Europe, as well as their home Country of Canada. The TSX is one of the largest Stock Exchange Groups in the world, and is an actual exchange, unlike the US OTC. Arguably, a TSX company is of more value than a fully deliverable US firm for these reasons.
