Continuing Membership Application
From a change in business, to mergers, or a change in ownership, many broker-dealers find themselves needing to file a Continuing Membership Application (“CMA”) pursuant to FINRA Rule 1017 at some point during the life of the firm.
Oyster services included in filing a CMA are:
