FINRA CONTENT OUTLINE FOR SERIES 6 INCLUDES CUSTOMER SCREENING AND CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION PROGRAM
Plan on taking the Series 6 exam? If so, make sure that you study and know the rules on customer screening and the customer identification program.
FINRA's Content Outline requires knowledge of customer screening and the customer identification program in Section 2.2.
Bob Eder presents a detailed treatment of customer screening in his Series 6 manual, Study for the Series 6 Exam, on pages 91-94. Here is a sample of Bob Eder's discussion:
"Customer Identification Program (CIP) (2.2)
As required by the USA Patriot
Act, the SEC and the U.S. Treasury have adopted rules requiring that
broker/dealers establish and operate a "customer identification
program," or CIP.
"Verification of Customer Information (2.2)
A broker/dealer must verify the
accuracy of the information given by the customer. This can be done in one of
two ways: either by checking documents or by non-documentary means."
