High-yield facts (commonly tested)
- Agent and broker-dealer registrations become effective at noon on the 30th day after filing unless the Administrator acts sooner; registrations expire December 31 unless renewed.
- When an agent leaves a firm, the agent and both broker-dealers must promptly notify the Administrator; an agent may represent more than one broker-dealer only if they are affiliated by common control.
- The Administrator may deny, suspend or revoke a registration for a willful violation, a felony conviction within the past 10 years, or a securities-related misdemeanor, but not for lack of experience alone.
- Under NSMIA, states cannot impose net capital, custody, margin, bonding or recordkeeping rules on a federally registered broker-dealer beyond the SEC's.
- Investment advisers with under $100 million in assets under management generally register with the states; at $110 million they must register with the SEC and only notice-file with states.

Series 63 study guide
What is inside
Series 63 flashcards for NASAA Uniform Securities Act themes: broker-dealer and agent registration, unethical business practices, communications with the public, and investment adviser basics. Built for state-law repair after SIE / [Series 7 flashcards](/decks/series-7-anki-deck) — same themes as the free timed readiness check.
Plan with the free Series 63 mock
**Phase 1:** Sit the [60-question Series 63 readiness check (free 25-question version)](/mock-exams/series-63-readiness-check). **Phase 2:** 15–20 Anki cards/day on your weakest law rows. **Phase 3:** Retake the mock; finish on ethics and communications if those domains lag. Confirm current NASAA outline and state scheduling separately.
Pitfalls this deck targets
Candidates reuse Series 7 product cards for Series 63, under-drill USA registration exemptions, and confuse federal vs state jurisdiction. Cards force state-law framing under spaced recall.
What this does not replace
NASAA outlines, state registration, or the official exam. Independent prep — not NASAA material.
