The MSRB is seeking public comment on a draft set of frequently asked questions (FAQs) related to the use of social media in advertising by municipal advisors and municipal securities dealers applicable under Rule G-21 and Rule G-40.
In May, the SEC approved the MSRB’s proposed Rule G-40, on advertising by municipal advisors, and amendments to MSRB Rule G-21, on advertising by municipal securities, despite opposition from almost all broker-dealer groups. Both new Rule G-40 and amendments to G-21 are set to be effective on February 7, 2019.
In July, the BDA submitted a comment letter to the MSRB concerning a draft set of frequently asked questions (FAQs) related to the use of municipal advisory client lists and case studies under Rule G-40. The final comment letter can be viewed here.
