municipal market participants, but has no enforcement ability - enforcement of MSRB

rules is performed by FINRA.



The CFTC regulates futures and commodities.

Both FINRA and the MSRB are SROs - self-regulatory organizations under SEC

oversight. The MSRB write rules for municipal market participants, but it does not

enforce those rules. Enforcement of MSRB rules is performed by FINRA for broker-

dealers.



SIPC is the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, which insures customer

accounts at broker-dealers from B/D failure.



FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) insures customer accounts at banks

from bank failure.

Futures Market



FINRA is the regulator for all of the securities markets - the Primary Market (new

issues); the First Market (trades on exchanges); the Second Market (OTC trades of

non-exchange listed securities); the Third Market (OTC trades of exchange listed

issues) and the Fourth Market (direct trading between institutions on ECNs and ATSs).



FINRA has no regulatory authority over the futures markets - that function is performed

by the CFTC - the Commodities Futures Trading Commission.

Driving for Uber after the markets have closed and securities transactions are not

occurring



Driving for Uber is work for pay - and to take an outside job, the representative must

give notice to the firm, follow the firm's instructions (so if the firm says no, the answer is

no), and must and his or her U4 to show this "OBA" - Outside Business Activity.



Volunteer work for no pay is not an OBA, unless it places the representative in a control

position to direct the management of investment funds. Traveling by a representative

does not have to be reported to the firm. Selling investments, whether proprietary

(meaning products of that firm) or nonproprietary, (meaning products of other securities

issuers) is the job description of a registered representative.

A registered representative at a FINRA member firm has been elected to his

cooperative apartment building's Board of Directors. Which statement is TRUE? -

Answer✔️✔️-This event must be reported to his or her employer



Any "OBA" - Outside Business Activity - must be reported to the firm and must be

approved by the firm. Furthermore, it must be reported on that registered

representative's U4 Form and is disclosed in that individual's BrokerCheck report.
