The Securities Industry Essentials (SIE)
The Solomon SIE Essentials Study Package comes with Solomon’s bestselling Exam Study Guide and industry-leading Online Exam Simulator to facilitate learning and knowledge retention. This powerful combination gives you what you need to learn and helps you retain the material by testing yourself as you go.
Studies show that learning followed by practice testing is the most successful study method (“Retrieval Practice Produces More Learning than Elaborative Studying with Concept Mapping” by Jeffrey D. Karpicke and Janell R. Blunt, January 2011).
Series 24 Study Materials
A Series 24 registration qualifies you to manage or supervise a FINRA member’s investment banking or securities business for corporate securities, rights, warrants, closed-end funds, money market funds, REITS, asset-backed securities, (corporate) mortgage-backed securities, mutual funds, variable annuities and variable life insurance, direct participation programs, securities traders, venture capital, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate financing. However, there are several positions that a Series 24 exam will not qualify you for, including supervising options and municipal securities. As a prerequisite to the Series 24 exam, you must pass the Series 7, 62, 79, or 82 exams.
Series 51 Study Materials
The municipal fund securities limited principal Series 51 was created by the MSRB to license individuals who have primary responsibility for overseeing the municipal fund securities activities of a broker, dealer, or municipal securities dealer.
Series 6 Top-off Study Materials
A Series 6 registration qualifies you to solicit, purchase, and/or sell the securities of companies registered under the Investment Companies Act of 1940, including mutual funds, closed-end companies, and variable contracts. Note that you can also sell these products with a Series 7.
Series 63 Study Materials
A Series 63 registration qualifies you as a securities agent in a specific state. It covers the principles of state securities regulation, most notably the Uniform Securities Act.
Series 65 Study Materials
A Series 65 registration qualifies you as an investment adviser representative, enabling you to provide investment advice to clients. A Series 66 license does the same; however, the Series 66 must be taken in conjunction with the Series 7 and is used by securities professionals who wish to be registered as both agents and IARs.
Series 66 Study Materials
In conjunction with the FINRA Series 7 General Securities Representative license, the NASAA Series 66 license qualifies you as both a securities agent and an investment advisor representative.
Series 7 Top-off Study Materials
A Series 7 registration qualifies you to solicit, purchase, and/or sell all securities products, including corporate and municipal securities, options, direct participation programs, mutual funds, and variable contracts.
