Registering a Broker-Dealer: The NMA and CMA Process Explained
Aug 04, 2023
Oyster Consulting, Ed Wegener, Lisa Robinson

 In order to become a registered broker-dealer, you must be registered with FINRA. Applying for this membership is an extensive process with multiple steps. We receive many, many questions about submitting a New Member Application (NMA) with FINRA and when a firm needs to submit a Continuing Membership Application (CMA). In this episode of the Oyster Stew podcast, Oyster’s Ed Wegener and Lisa Robinson shares their thoughts on fast-track application, when a CMA is necessary, and what to think about before submitting.
