All of the above. For a Canadian broker-dealer with no offices in this state to do business with Canadian residents who are temporarily in this state, it must apply for a special limited registration. Filing involves all of the choices listed. In essence, Canadian broker-dealers and agents have a limited form of the snowbird exemption.

B) I, II, III, and IV Banks, IARs, federal covered advisers, and lawyers are all specifically excluded from the definition of investment adviser. Any investment adviser under contract to manage a regulated investment company must register with the SEC and is, therefore, a federal covered adviser (regardless of where they have an office). Remember that the law makes a distinction between investment advisers and their representatives and that certain professions are excluded from the definition if the investment advice provided is solely incidental to the practice of that profession. Making suggestions as to how to invest proceeds from a legal settlement would certainly appear to be incidental to the practice of law. Banks are given a blanket exclusion.

When an application for registration as an agent is filed, the Administrator has the right to inquire about any of the following EXCEPT A) a drug-related felony conviction that occurred 7 years ago B) a drug-related misdemeanor conviction that occurred 8 years ago C) a conviction for a securities-related misdemeanor 6 years ago D) an adjudication by the SEC 5 years ago

B) he conducts frequent public seminars in the state One of the provisions dealing with federal covered investment advisers is that states have no registration jurisdiction over their investment adviser representatives unless the IAR has a place of business in the state.

Acting as a paid speaker for an investment seminar "crosses the line".

C) I, II, III, and IV An agent is described in the Uniform Securities Act as an individual, other than a broker-dealer or issuer, who represents a broker-dealer or issuer in effecting transactions in securities. The lawyer is not engaged in effecting securities transactions on behalf of the issuer or broker-dealer. Therefore, the lawyer is not considered an agent subject to regulation by the Uniform Securities Act. A partner (or anyone else) of a securities firm making a personal investment does not make him an agent. An officer of an issuer not receiving any compensation for sales of the issuer's stock to employees is not an agent under the USA.

Traditionally, banks have been excluded from the definition of a broker-dealer. However, under recent federal legislation, a bank is included in the definition if it A) conducts personal trust activities B) refers customers to a clearly identified third-party brokerage house not under the control of the bank C) bought and sold securities on behalf of customers in a wholly owned brokerage subsidiary D) conducts securities custodial activities

C) bought and sold securities on behalf of customers in a wholly owned brokerage subsidiary Under financial modernization legislation (known as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act), banks can have wholly owned brokerage subsidiaries. In such cases, the bank would be a broker-dealer subject to registration. The bank is not a broker-dealer if it refers securities to unrelated third-party brokerage houses or limits its securities-related activities to trust and custodial activities.

An insurance agent who prepares comprehensive financial plans and receives commissions on any insurance products purchased by his clients III. A broker-dealer with extensive business in the state IV. A mutual fund company with offices and clients in the state A) I, II, III, and IV B) III and IV C) I only D) I and II

D) I and II A certified financial planner who prepares financial plans for commissions must register in the state as an investment adviser representative because the commissions represent compensation for advice. An insurance agent who prepares comprehensive financial plans for commissions is also acting in the capacity of an investment adviser representative and must register accordingly. In both cases, these individuals are holding themselves out as offering investment advice because, at least in the eyes of the USA, there is no such thing as a comprehensive financial plan that does not involve securities. The commissions they receive are considered indirect compensation for the rendering of investment advice. Broker-dealers and mutual fund companies are not investment advisers under the Uniform Securities Act.

Once broker-dealers receive special compensation, such as in a wrap fee program, they lose their exclusion. Economists are not included in the list of exclusions.

Because this individual is already registered in State A, it is not necessary to pass another exam to become registered in another state.​ It is the investment adviser who ​may be required to notice file with the Administrator.
