Series 63: Acting As Both Principal And An Investment Adviser

Taken from our Series 63 Online Guide

Acting as Both Principal and an Investment Adviser

While broker-dealers regularly sell their customers securities that they themselves actually own (known as acting as a principal), it is far less common for an investment adviser to do the same thing. Since an investment adviser is not registered as a dealer, selling a customer securities out of the firm’s account requires special written consent from the customer by the date the transaction is complete.

I recently passed the series 62 & 63 FINRA exams (first try). The practice exams (with never repeating questions), helped prepare me thoroughly for the challenging questions ahead on the actual tests. Thanks Solomon!

I have used Solomon exam prep for the 6/63 and was able to pass on the first try. Now I’m taking the 65 and hope to do the same. I’ve used other recommended exam prep courses and came back to Solomon for the 65 because of ease of use. I would recommend Solomon to anyone that is in need of a securities exam. All the content is laid out in an easy to follow way.

I passed the Series 63 on the first try. You now have a loyal customer in me. Using Solomon is probably the closest exam success guarantee you could possibly get. Thanks, your exam prep was worth every penny. I would recommend your exam prep to anyone and if I ever have a take another Series exam. I will only be using Solomon exam prep.

I used Solomon for the 63 and the 65 and PASSED both on 1st try. U will too.

Just passed the S63 exam on the second try. The only reason I failed the first time is that I didn't take enough timed practice exams. My advice is to take practice exams until you are blue in the face. I did that this time around and aced the exam. I've now passed both S7 (first try) and S63 with Solomon. Worth every penny.
