Series 63 practice questionhardCanadian Broker-Dealer and Agent Limited Registration
In a state that has adopted NASAA's Canadian broker-dealer model rule, a Canadian broker-dealer wants to service an existing Canadian client who is temporarily in the state. Which statement is correct?
- AThe broker-dealer's status automatically covers every Canadian agent
- BBoth the broker-dealer and the acting agent must qualify under the applicable limited-registration procedure✓ Correct answer
- CNeither the broker-dealer nor the agent makes any state filing
- DThe agent may rely solely on the client's Canadian citizenship
Explanation
Why B — Both the broker-dealer and the acting agent must qualify under the applicable limited-registration procedure
The Canadian broker-dealer framework provides a limited registration procedure for qualifying cross-border activity. The broker-dealer's eligibility does not automatically cover its personnel; the agent effecting the transaction must also qualify under the applicable state procedure.
