FINRA proposed the implementation of "an anonymous, grouped masking methodology" in order to address confidentiality concerns regarding the publication of over-the-counter ("OTC") trading activity as required by the Regulation NMS Plan Tick Size Pilot Program.

Comments should be submitted within twenty-one days of the proposal's publication in the Federal Register.
