Series 63: Acting As Both Principal And An Investment Adviser

Taken from our Series 63 Online Guide

Acting as Both Principal and an Investment Adviser

While broker-dealers regularly sell their customers securities that they themselves actually own (known as acting as a principal), it is far less common for an investment adviser to do the same thing. Since an investment adviser is not registered as a dealer, selling a customer securities out of the firm’s account requires special written consent from the customer by the date the transaction is complete.

I LOVED your exam books; passed 6 and 63 with flying colors.

Arthur Bracco, New York, NY

I recently passed the series 62 & 63 FINRA exams (first try). The practice exams (with never repeating questions), helped prepare me thoroughly for the challenging questions ahead on the actual tests. Thanks Solomon!

Austin Najib, Key West Investments, San Gabriel, CA

All of your products are AMAZING! I passed my 6 & 63 with Solomon by my side every step of the way. Thanks again!

Stephen Snyder

I passed my S63 Sunday, March 15th!!

Walter Whitehead, Los Angeles, CA

Your "Pass the 7" guide and practice questions helped my studying immensely, and I passed the exam the first time. I am currently using the "Pass the 63" guide and practice questions - the teaching style makes the learning experience much more interesting! I will definitely recommend your products to my friends and colleagues. Thank you so much!

Patrick Chen, Midtown Partners, New York, NY

Passed the 63 with an 85%. The exam simulator was unbelievably helpful, but still make sure you understand the fundamental concepts and the questions are not always phrased the same way or in the same structure. It was significantly easier as there was some overlap with 79 materials, which I had also previously passed using Solomon materials.
