What this video covers

  • What the National Securities Markets Improvement Act (NSMIA) did in 1996, and why federal covered securities are preempted from state registration entirely
  • The exact contents of a state notice filing: federal documents, consent to service of process, amendments, value reports, and fees
  • Why consent to service of process matters: it gives the state administrator legal standing to sue on behalf of injured residents
  • The Regulation D (Reg D) exam trap: federal covered status exempts from state registration but does NOT exempt from state notice filing with Form D and fees
  • When the Administrator may issue a stop order against a federal covered security: public interest plus failure to comply with notice filing conditions
  • The exchange-listed immunity: why NYSE and NASDAQ-listed securities are fully armored against state stop orders under any circumstances
  • The Administrator's waiver power: how rule or order can eliminate any or all notice filing provisions
