Series 26: Approval Of Change In Exempt Status

Taken from our Series 26 Online Guide

Approval of Change in Exempt Status

An exempt firm may not change its method of doing business in a manner that would change its exempt status or begin operations that would disqualify it from a continued exemption under the customer protection rule unless it has obtained FINRA’s prior written approval.

In deciding whether to approve or deny an application for a change in exempt status, FINRA will consider the firm’s type of business; the training, experience and qualifications of its associated persons; its procedures for safeguarding customer funds and securities; its overall financial and operational condition; and any other information considered relevant under the particular circumstances.

I just passed my Series 26, Principal license. Thank you Solomon, the content was great and the exam simulator was the perfect tool to get this passed!

Greg Fierle, American Fidelity. Springboro, OH

Solomon Exam Prep was the ticket to passing my Series 26 test. I would like to thank you all for your help! I highly recommend your study material for the FINRA exams.

David H. Viar, Farm Bureau Financial Services, West Des Moines, IA

I took a job which required me to pass the SIE, Series 6, Series 63 and Series 26. Understandably this was a pretty tall task, but the Solomon Exam Prep materials made it incredibly easy. I appreciated how well all of the material was laid out for all four tests. I stuck to the study plans that were included in the resources and passed all four tests on the first try. This was a stressful time in my life, but Solomon got me through it! I would highly recommend Solomon to anyone who is looking to become licensed. Part of my new job is managing other licensed individuals and I recently hired two employees who are now required to be licensed. I reached out to Solomon for a demo of their Admin Portal and it is wonderfully comprehensive. It allows me to track my employees progress without having to reach out and be too invasive. Excellent all around!

I have passed the Series 6, 63, and 26 on my first tries, all with the excellent training offered by Solomon. I'll never use another platform for my material.

Jodee Hempel, Woodmen Financial Services. Omaha, NE

I am so glad I used the Solomon prep information for my series 26. The simulator is awesome and helped me the most in having success in passing exam. I strongly recommend the materials for anyone taking the 26. Thanks Rosie!

I was having a tough time with the series 26 material. It had been 10 years since I had last studied for a test. I used other material of some big name companies that did not help me to understand what the test was asking. I purchased the Question bank from Solomon and I truly believe it is one of the reasons I was able to power through the exam. The questions were more challenging then the actual test itself which really helped me when it came to crunch time.
