Notable Quotes 2
OCC follows established procedures for assigning exercises to Clearing Member accounts that contain short option positions identical to the exercised options.
The rules of the options markets require their member firms to establish fixed procedures for allocating assignments to customers (e.g., random selection or "first-in, first-out") and to inform their customers of the method used and how it works.
