On September 30, 2025, the new Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE) announced that the SEC approved its Form 1 registration statement, officially approving the exchange. Accordingly, the TXSE is now officially a recognized national securities exchange, similar to the Nasdaq Stock Market and the New York Stock Exchange, both of which the TXSE has expressly targeted as its main competitors in past public statements. In the TXSE’s own words, this makes it the “first fully integrated national securities exchange to receive SEC approval in decades” offering, within a single platform, a comprehensive suite of services, including listing standards, trading, clearing, settlement, and market data.
