Series 24: Taping Rule

Taken from our Series 24 Online Guide

Taping Rule

Each member firm must adopt special supervisory procedures over the telemarketing activities of all its registered personnel, if the member firm is found to employ an excessive number of registered persons who have previously been associated with a disciplined firm during the past three years. A disciplined firm is one that has been expelled from membership in any self-regulatory organization or is subject to an SEC order revoking its registration as a broker-dealer or futures commission merchant.

Whether the taping rule goes into effect depends on the member firm’s size. The taping rule will be employed if the number of registered representatives that were previously employed by a disciplined firm reaches or exceeds the following thresholds: 40%, if it employs between 5 and 9 registered personnel; four, if the firm employs between 10 and 19 registered persons; and 20%, if it employs 20 or more registered persons. A firm that employs 51 registered representatives may employ up to 10 from a disciplined firm without invoking the taping rule. A firm of five registered representatives may employ only one, since a second registered representative from a disciplined firm would hit the 40% cut-off.

A firm that is subject to the taping rule is given a one-time chance to lower its num

TESTIMONIALS

What are people saying?

I was very apprehensive about the Series 24 exam prior to taking it. Everyone I knew who had taken it informed me that it was an incredibly difficult test, with questions that were meant to trick you. After following Solomon's six week study outline and making flashcards for my weakest areas, I was averaging in the high 80s on the Solomon practice exams. That gave me the confidence I needed to walk into the test center feeling prepared, and the knowledge I needed to walk out of the test center having scored an 88. I am now recommending the Solomon Series 24 materials to everyone at the office!

Thank you Solomon! I was able to pass the SIE, 7, 63 and 24 in a relatively short time period. The practice exams with answers really helped and when I had a question for The Professor, I always received a quick and accurate response. Solomon is definitely the way to go.

Just wanted to say thank you and give you a good review. I actually found that your test questions were harder than the actual exam and the explanations and the ability to create tests of all of my wrong answers helped me focus on my weak areas of the exam. I passed the first time and don't believe I couldn't have done it without your test bank. Thanks again.

I just took the Series 24 and passed with an 80%. I couldn't have done it without the Solomon test simulator.

I originally started studying for the series 24 with Test Teachers... After being frustrated with confusing material, out of date information, contradicting questions/answer/study guides, I bought Solomon's practice exams... After one test, two things became clear: I was grossly unprepared for the exam The material, though difficult, didn't have to be taught in such a confusing manner.I passed the 24 on the fist time because of the quality of the practice exams from Solomon. Thank you! Putting it another way...If you are using anyone else to study, you owe it to yourself and your efforts to buy the practice exams from Solomon to get a true judge of your studying efforts.

I passed the 24 with the help of the audio, book and test questions. I previously took this test and failed walking away with the thought nothing I studied looked familiar. I also didn't really understand how certain areas functioned... but found the information provided with Solomon worked best for me. The flow charts and extra resources section were extremely helpful in breaking down sections of this "Dry" test. The audio was great to review and the book format was easy to read and concise. I felt almost every question I knew what they were asking and I was able to eliminate one or two questions. Don't waste your money with other sites. Solomon will allow you to pass on the first time. Good luck!
