Solutions

A woman owns a very successful bike shop. She wants to expand her business and is
planning to offer her securities to the public. She will help to market the shares but will
not be involved in sales or receive direct compensation for her efforts. According to the
Uniform Securities Act, the owner must register: - Answer-the securities

The question states that the owner is conducting a public offering of securities. All
securities offerings must be registered unless they qualify for an exemption. Since there
is nothing in the question to indicate that the offering qualifies for an exemption, the
securities must be registered. The owner is NOT involved in effecting securities
transactions, giving advice for compensation, nor soliciting business for an investment
adviser.

provisions, EXCEPT: - Answer-an exculpatory provision

provisions are not allowed in an adviser's contract.

Which of the following persons would be considered an investment adviser
representative under the Uniform Securities Act?
a) a registered representative with BareBones Brokerage who occasionally offers
complimentary tax and financial planning advice to clients
b) an office manager of an advisory firm who manages sales associates
c) a lawyer who refers business to an advisory firm and receives a referral fee
d) all of the above - Answer-answer is c.

An investment adviser representative (IAR) includes but is not limited to any partner,
officer, director of an investment adviser, or a person occupying a similar status or
performing similar functions. In addition, when a person:
Recommends or otherwise renders advice regarding securities
Manages accounts or portfolios of clients
Determines which recommendation or advice regarding securities should be given
Solicits, offers or negotiates for the sale of or sells investment advisory services
Supervises employees who perform any of the previous functions
Though the office manager of an advisory firm supervises employees, the sales
associates do not perform any of the related duties therefore the office manager is not
required to be registered as an IAR.

, Michelle Gladstone has noticed that many of her elderly clients do not bother to read the
prospectus prior to making a purchase. They consider these documents much too
confusing and far too time-consuming to go through. They generally rely on Michelle's
advice when considering investment selections. Michelle is uncomfortable with her
clients' lack of due diligence and is attempting to come up with a better way to educate
them about the risks and rewards of investing in a particular fund. Under SEC rules,
Michelle may engage in which of the following activities? - Answer-she may provide her
clients with a summary prospectus from the fund's wholesaler

Michelle does not need to produce any document nor should she alter any document to
address her client's ability to understand the risks and rewards of the investments they
intend to purchase. However, based on her concern she may provide them with a
document which will condense the information found in the full disclosure document.
Providing her clients with a summary prospectus will provide various information
including the fund's expenses, risks and performance. This document will also refer to
the availability of the full statutory prospectus
