HOT OFF THE PRESSES!

 

The MSRB just published its 2016 Annual Report, documenting highlights from an eventful year, including:

  • MSRB’s implementation of a best-execution rule;
  • Finalization of mark-up disclosure rule - aimed at ensuring municipal bond prices are fair and transparent for investors.
  • MSRB’s completion of foundational rules and standards for municipal advisors consistent with those that have long applied to municipal securities dealers.

 

And, did you know that .......  in 2016, MSRB rebated $5.5 million to brokers and dealers and recalibrated several of its fees to appropriately allocate funding across the diverse universe of regulated entities in a manner that ensures long-term organizational stability?
