David Beckham-owned esports organisation Guild Esports has announced that it is now officially trading in the US through the OTCQB Venture Market.

Kal Hourd, Chief Executive of Guild, said: “Guild is thrilled to begin trading on the OTCQB Venture Market. The cross-trading of the ordinary shares from London will provide the Company with increased access to US institutional and retail investors and a broader shareholder base. US investors will now have the opportunity to share in the Company’s growth as the esports market gains momentum.”

According to the release, trading in the United States will allow Guild Esports to reach more possible investors and extend its reach to North America. The organisation also noted in the release that trading in the United States will have no effect on existing shares trading on the London Stock Exchange.

The OTCQB is a mid-tier OTC equity market that lists mostly early-stage and developing companies. 

Guild Esports joins OverActive Media in entering the OTCQB Market. MAD Lions’ holding company announced earlier this year that began trading in the USA via the same market.

David Beckham, Co-owner of Guild, added: “It has been great to see Guild start to make its mark with top rankings across all teams and some great commercial partners like Subway and Samsung. It will be exciting to see this next stage in Guild’s development.”

Esports Insider says: Guild Esports is slowly stretching its legs across the Atlantic and turning to the United States. The fact that the company is now traded publicly in the USA means that a wider audience can invest in Guild, while also providing the organisation with global investor awareness that is vital for a young company.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
