Alternative marketplaces vs regulated Main Market marketplaces

The basic principles of operation of alternative marketplaces are very similar to those of regulated markets and stock exchanges. However, there are some notable differences. Alternative marketplace issuers are able to obtain virtually the same benefits as on a regulated market, but with lower resource consumption both financially and in terms of man-hours spent.
