7.6. The Uniform Securities Act

The Uniform Securities Act, or USA, was created to help states write their own securities laws. The USA is designed to be model legislation for use by all states in drafting their own state legislation regarding the regulatory requirements of investment advisers, broker-dealers, and issuers of securities. No matter what state you’re taking this exam in, the state securities laws you’re studying were built using the Uniform Securities Act as a template. The version of the act that you will be tested on is the Uniform Securities Act of 1956. Since the Uniform Securities Act ties together much of the legislative intent of all the laws created before it and may represent 25% to 30% or more of the entire exam, you need to memorize the details of this law as outlined in the next few chapters.

Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Having the audio, video lectures (with the printable power-point!) and exam simulator in addition to the book really engages you in the material. It becomes a game! I passed the 66 with an 84%.

I passed my 66 today - thank you Solomon for the assistance and materials. It was incredibly difficult! I wish I had watched the videos even more.

Karen- I passed the Series 66! I cannot even begin to say thank you enough times. I continue to be impressed and amazed by your program.

Solomon Exam Prep materials are head and shoulders above any other company's products. I have purchased several other companies' materials and found that when it came time to take the crucial step of practice exams, every other company's answer explanations simply were too brief to be truly educational, or worse, sometimes contradictory to the text. That is when I turned to Solomon Exam Prep. After purchasing their materials, an actual team member emailed me almost every other day to ask how I was doing with my studying and offered assistance if I had questions. With this kind of support, you aren't trying to climb the mountain of becoming licensed alone! Finally, the owner also contacted me several times to thank me for my purchase and to check on my progress. There is no other company out there doing business in this exemplary way. Please be kind to yourself and START with Solomon Exam Prep materials for the BEST of success!

The Solomon Series 66 prep material was very comprehensive and practice quizzes and exams helped a great deal to gauge my likelihood of passing the exam

I love Solomon Exam Prep! The materials are comprehensive and simulate the type of questions on the tests. And the staff is so committed to their students' success. Without them, I wouldn't have been able to pass both the 7 and the 66.
