5.7.2.2. Reporting System for Bonds

Unlike stocks, bonds are not generally traded on exchanges. Instead, bond trading takes place directly between broker-dealers, banks, mutual funds, and other market makers in a decentralized, over-the-counter market. Bonds have not been well suited to exchange trading because they are less uniform and more varied than stocks. A large corporation might have dozens of different bond issues. In addition, there are government and agency bonds, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, mortgage and collateralized debt obligation bonds, and foreign bonds.

The Transaction Reporting and Compliance Engine (TRACE) is FINRA’s automated system for reporting trades in OTC debt securities. TRACE does not accept quotes or execute trades; it only reports completed trades. Both the buy and the sell sides are required to report TRACE trades. The trades must be reported within 15 minutes during normal business hours. If the repor

I used Solomon to study for the 26 and most recently the 24. The material is layered in way that makes it manageable to digest and the instructor response time and explanations are outstanding. I passed both on the first attempt!

Gus Velleco, Allstate, Charleston, SC

I passed my Series 24 with two weeks of nearly full-time study, using the textbook, the online class, and the exam simulator. The textbook was very readable and helpful in providing complete explanations, as well as helpful memorization tips. The online class and pre-recorded sessions were crucial to get through all of the material and put it in relative context. It was helpful to be able to have questions answered instantly and via email afterward. The online simulator questions were just like the exam questions, and the immediate feedback function was essential for learning from the practice quizzes and exam. I needed every minute of my study and practice time to count, and Solomon Exam Prep made it possible. Thank you!

I would just like to say that Solomon’s customer service was excellent. The material was clear and easy to understand and I feel that it prepared me extremely well for my exam. I found the study outline to be the most helpful in keeping me on track. I would definitely refer the material to anyone taking the Series 24. Thank you to the Solomon team for helping me pass my 24!

I stuck to the outline day by day and it really helped me with sticking to a routine and curriculum. I passed the Series 24 on my 1st try! Would definitely recommend this to anyone in the Securities Industry.

Rima Mehta, PNC Investments, Charlotte, NC

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

Karmen Richards, Multi Financial Securities, Greensboro, NC

Thank you Solomon! I was able to pass the SIE, 7, 63 and 24 in a relatively short time period. The practice exams with answers really helped and when I had a question for The Professor, I always received a quick and accurate response. Solomon is definitely the way to go.
