Regulators today approved of a plan to compensate market makers who lost money in the botched Facebook Inc. (FB) IPO in May on the Nasdaq exchange.
Nasdaq, a unit of Nasdaq OMX Group Inc. (NDAQ), has offered a revised $62 million settlement to those brokerages that lost money.
The decision from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission was in response to a series of high-profile glitches last year that shook the market, including the handling of Facebook's long-anticipated initial public offering.
This is welcome news to initial investors, however it has caused share price to dip by 2%.
