What is the primary function of a Greensheet in the financial industry?

  1. Informing shareholders about dividend payouts

  2. Providing information on market trends

  3. Informing salespeople about upcoming public issues

  4. Assessing the financial health of a company

The correct answer is: Informing salespeople about upcoming public issues

A Greensheet is a report produced by a financial institution that provides information on upcoming public issues, such as new stocks or bonds being offered to the public. Therefore, informing salespeople about these upcoming public issues is the primary function of a Greensheet. Option A is incorrect because that is the function of a dividend statement, not a Greensheet. Option B is incorrect because while Greensheets may contain information on market trends, it is not their primary function. Option D is incorrect because while Greensheets may contain information on a company's financial health, it is not their primary function.
