A training manager asks you to analyze the following USA issue. Prioritize the registration trigger and ignore irrelevant noise. Which of the following is NOT a ground for denial of registration under the Uniform Securities Act?

  1. AThe applicant is insolvent
  2. BThe applicant lacks adequate qualifications or experience
  3. CThe applicant has been named in a civil lawsuit unrelated to securities✓ Correct answer
  4. DThe applicant has willfully violated the securities laws of another state
Explanation

Why CThe applicant has been named in a civil lawsuit unrelated to securities

Under USA Section 204, grounds for denial include insolvency, lack of qualifications, willful violations of securities laws, and felony or securities-related misdemeanor convictions. Being named in a civil lawsuit unrelated to securities is not, by itself, a basis for denial of registration. The exam trick is the framing, not the underlying Uniform Securities Act rule.
