8.4.2.5. Customer Identification Program

The MSRB requires each firm to develop, document, and maintain a written Customer Identification Program (CIP). This program should be appropriate to the firm’s size. The CIP must contain procedures for verifying the identity of each customer who opens an account. The verification process involves two steps. For step one, prior to opening the account, the member firm must obtain the customer’s:

• Name

• Date of birth

• Address

• Identification number, such as Taxpayer

I actually initially failed the Series 52 and was left frustrated with the previous exam prep course that I previously took. I took a look at many of your testimonials and thought I would take a chance on Solomon. I was not disappointed. I passed the Series 52 on the second go, and the test was a breeze due to the preparation of your Series 52 exam prep. I couldn't be happier with Solomon. Onward and upward!

I had previously used a competitors material while preparing for the Series 52 exam. Using that material I failed the exam twice and both times I felt unprepared even after studying a ton. I switched to Solomon after reading reviews that seemed to be similar to my scenario. I finally passed!! Solomon's material did a great job of simplifying really complex material. The practice exams were very similar to the real exam. While taking the exam for the third time after studying with Solomon I felt confident the entire exam because I knew the information and had seen questions formatted similar while taking practice exams. Thanks Solomon!!!

Questions from the exam simulator were pretty similar to the actual series 52 exam, and I felt prepared with the study guide. I will be purchasing the series 53 study materials from Solomon in the near future.

Passed the 52 and 53 within two months thanks to the clarity of Solomon's materials. Great product!

I used Solomon for the Series 52 after failing twice with Kaplan and STC. Solomon was immensely more helpful, simpler to understand, and more accurate than both companies combined. The practice questions were very similar to the ones I saw on the exam and the Ask the Professor feature was quick and helpful. I will be using Solomon for the Series 7 in a few months, and I recommend everyone who need to take a FINRA exam to use Solomon before anything else.

I failed the Series 52 twice and thought my troubles were with retention, but they were with the practice. I used a competitor's materials and it lacked depth and above all else it lacked a large test bank of questions. With Solomon, I went from feeling unable to fully assess all of the answers on the actual exam, to knowing why an answer was right AS WELL AS knowing why the other 3 answers were wrong. This is an underappreciated aspect of test taking that was only achieved through repetition of different questions. Solomon's large test bank was invaluable and the ability to take practice exams with only the questions you previously got wrong is a fantastic addition.
