Series 63 practice questioneasySecurities Registration — Coordination

In a state-law practice set, a candidate reviews the following scenario. Read it as a Uniform Securities Act issue rather than a federal-law issue. Registration by coordination under the Uniform Securities Act requires that a security be registered simultaneously with which federal agency?

  1. AThe Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)✓ Correct answer
  2. BThe Federal Reserve Board
  3. CThe Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)
  4. DThe Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
Explanation

Why AThe Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

Under USA Section 303, registration by coordination is available when a registration statement has been filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933. The state registration becomes effective simultaneously with the federal registration, streamlining the process for issuers conducting multi-state offerings. The exam trick is the framing, not the underlying Uniform Securities Act rule.
