5.7. Book-Entry Delivery: DVP and RVP

Most securities today are issued and traded in book-entry form, meaning that ownership of the security does not involve ownership of a physical certificate. Instead, book-entry securities exist as a computer record on the books of the issuer and the investor’s broker-dealer. Trade confirmations and account statements are the investor’s evidence of ownership.

Member firms must use the facilities of a securities depository for the book-entry settlement of securities transactions. Book-entry transactions may be settled by delivery vs. payment or receipt vs. payment.

Delivery vs. payment (DVP), or cash on demand, simply means that delivery and payment must occur simultaneously. Receive vs. payment (RVP), or cash on delivery, is its counterpart. DVP means that a buyer does not have to pay for its purchased securities until it receives them. RVP means that a seller will not receive payment in cash until it delivers the securities. A large customer with a high volume of trading might have its own DVP/RVP account specifically to facilitate this process. A DVP/RVP account must be approved by a registered clearing agency

I took my Series 24 on July 28 and passed!! I had not passed 2 prior Series 24 exams and was down to my last attempt. A fellow principal on my team who had not passed his Series 24 his first time told me about the Solomon practice tests and how they helped him. It was such a big help for me passing exam as the questions were structured more like the real exam than any other practice tests I’ve taken. I have since gone to other employees at my firm for other tests, such as the Series 7, SIE among others and have told them about the Solomon test materials and some of them are now purchasing Solomon as well.

I just passed the series 24! It is, by far, the hardest test that I have ever taken. I had failed it 4 times using other study materials. I have never felt more defeated! Solomon Exam Prep is the best! I took over 154 practice tests...without seeing the same question twice. I was able to finally grasp the material and passed! My only regret is that I did not use the Solomon Exam Prep on my first attempt!

I passed the 24 the first time with the help of the Solomon materials. The online course and the exams really helped focus in and clarify what was important. I've recommended them to all of my colleagues!

I had tried another learning system before Solomon and walked into the Series 24 unprepared and subsequently failed. After using the Solomon system for three weeks, taking full advantage of the app on my cell phone I walked into my second attempt very prepared for the type of questions I was going to see. Not only did I pass, I did so with confidence. Thanks so much Solomon!

Passed the 24 today ... fun test.. You have a great product. The material was easy to follow and the practice tests were very, very helpful. Thank you.

I wanted to let you know I passed the exam [Series 24] this morning! The practice exams were invaluable. Thank you for your extra help and suggestions. I have recommended this to two of my co-workers who will be taking the Series 7 this year. I will say, the 24 was worded so tricky. And so much irrelevant info put into the questions. I had to write down pieces of the question to get the gist of what it was asking. Very purposfully confusing. But it's over and I'm thankful for your product. Thx again
