Investment advisors often have their clients open accounts at a broker-dealer so that the advisor does not have to go through the process of obtaining state approval in order to take
custody of client funds and securities. The advisor will then receive discretionary authority from the client in order to trade in the account on their behalf. The discretionary authority
received is typically "limited discretion" whereby the advisor may transact in the account but is not allowed to remove funds or securities from the account

$10,000 fine, five years in prison, or both
$5,000 fine, three years in prison, or both
$10,000 fine
$5,000 fine
Under the Uniform Securities Act, a criminal violation exists if the person willfully violates
a provision of the Act. The maximum penalty for each violation is a $5,000 fine, three years in prison, or both. If the person proves that he or she had no prior knowledge of the provision violated, there will be no prison sentence imposed. The state administrator does not have the authority to impose criminal penalties - the courts in each state take these actions
Which of the following is true regarding the Investment Advisor''s Act of 1940 as it pertains to anti-fraud provisions:
A company that meets the definition of an investment advisor but does not have to register due to an exemption is subject to the anti-fraud provisions of the Act
The state Administrator is responsible for registering all fraudulent investment advisors who fall under the federal definition
A company that is accused of committing fraud and is exonerated of all charges is then required to register with the SEC
A company that meets the defintion of an investment advisor and is registered at the federal level is not subject to the anti-fraud provisions of the Act
If a company is exempt from federal registration, it still is subject to the anti-fraud
provisions - no matter what the exemption - anti-fraud rules apply to all investment advisor at either the state or federal level
Heatprod Investment Advisors is opening a new account for Mrs Mathers, but the firm does
not want to be responsible for custody of her securities. To keep her as a customer, they try an alternate solution. Mrs Mathers will open an account at a local broker-dealer and then give written discretionary authority to Heatprod. This will allow Heatprod to execute transactions in her broker account. Is this legal?
Possibly, unless Mrs Mathers offers the broker reciprocal advantages
No, it is strictly prohibited for a broker-dealer and investment advisor to cross transact
Mrs Mathers could face charges if caught
Yes, investment advisors often do this
This is a perfectly legal and common solution to the challenge. Under the Uniform
Securities Act, investment advisors may keep custody of client funds and securities. However, in order to do so, the advisory firm must obtain approval from the state administrator first. In order to avoid going through the administrator, the advisor may obtain written discretionary authority to trade in the client's account at the broker-dealer. The client funds or securities are held at the broker-dealer for a fee, and everyone is satisfied
