- CFINRA is a statutory federal government agency empowered to bring criminal charges and impose state prison sentences on securities law violators.
- DThe MSRB directly enforces its own rules by conducting direct examinations and issuing administrative fines to municipal bond issuers.
Cevap
The correct statements are that FINRA is a membership-based self-regulatory organization overseeing member broker-dealers under SEC supervision, and that the MSRB creates rules for municipal securities but relies on FINRA and bank regulators for enforcement.
FINRA is a self-regulatory organization (SRO) operating under SEC oversight to regulate broker-dealers and registered representatives. The MSRB proposes and adopts rules for municipal securities firms and advisors, but lacks statutory authority to examine firms or enforce compliance directly, relying on FINRA and banking regulators to perform those functions.
