1.7.1.6. Release of Disciplinary Complaints and Decisions

FINRA must release information to the public about a disciplinary complaint that contains an allegation of any violation of a statute, rule, or regulation under FINRA’s jurisdiction. It may also release information on complaints that involve significant policy or enforcement issues if FINRA’s chief executive officer determines that such release of information is in the public interest.

FINRA must release information to the public with respect to any disciplinary decision imposing (1) a suspension, cancellation, or expulsion of a member firm or (2) a suspension or revocation of the registration of an associated person.

I would like to say a big thank you to Solomon for helping me pass my Series 14 exam. I took this exam the first time and missed passing by few marks. I was really sad and discouraged so reached out to Jeremy Solomon and he really took the time to talk to me and provide his guidance and advice. He also provided me with additional resources immediately to help with my second attempt. I recently passed this exam. Their study material is easy to understand and the Online Exam Simulator also has a lot of questions chapter-wise which were very helpful. Their customer service has been amazing and very responsive. Thank you Solomon. I will definitely recommend Solomon for anyone planning to take this exam.

Passed the 65 with an 80% and the 6 with an 87%. Passed both of them on the first try. I give the credit to Solomon. I've had a lot of my friends try other vendors but they were glad to take my advice and switch to Solomon. This course helps you understand the concepts so you can think out the uniquely crafted questions the actual tests ask. Thanks so much.

Gerald Barnes, Client One, Peoria, AZ

Thank you so much and special thanks to the product you put out!! I did not know about Solomon a year ago when I took the Series 7 and I used another company's material. I did not pass the 7 first time and I was extremely nervous about the 66. However your product was wonderful and thanks to you guys I passed the 66 on my first try!!! Can't thank you enough!!!

Thanks for your help. I passed my Series 6 test! Couldn't have done it without Solomon Exam Prep study materials.

Thank you...thank you. I took my Series 7 yesterday and passed....1st try. Read the whole book 3 times. My system was to go through and answer the questions I was positive about. Good guess at the others and park them for review. The hardest part is trying to understand what they are actually asking. This way I wasn’t bogged down and stressed being stuck on a question. Second time around go through all those parked questions...digging deeper...checking my calculations etc. again parking the ones that totally stumped me. Third time around....educated guesses and what seemed to make sense. Also, on my way there, I was picturing myself in the room....sitting at the computer (yes, I took a dry run to see the inside). It took that part of the unknown out of the equation. Be prepared for the masks and Covid precautions. Any options questions, as tricky as they make them, I would look at my charts and was able to make sense of what they were asking. Finished the test in record time. Being prepared gave me the confidence to get through it. Many thanks Lorraine

I struggled with passing the Series 52 exam. I used study materials from Kaplan & STC Interactive. It wasn't until I used Solomon's materials that I was able to pass the exam.
