The Securities Exchange Commission consists of:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Among other things, the trade confirmation that Anna receives must stipulate the items described in Selections I and III only. The trade confirmation that Anna receives from GetErDone must stipulate the time and date of the transaction, the number of shares sold, and the price at which they were sold. The exchange or ECN on which the transaction was executed is not provided on the confirmation statement. Whether GetErDone acted as a principal or a broker in the transaction does need to be stipulated, but in this instance GetErDone acted as a broker, not a principal. GetErDone did not itself buy the shares from Anna.

I'm going with B. You can't go wrong with the good old checks and balances of the President and Senate.

Option C is just plain wrong. The SEC is a federal agency, not some FINRA-controlled organization.

I was leaning towards D, but I guess the Treasury Secretary doesn't have the power to appoint the SEC members. Good to know!

Option B seems like the correct answer. The SEC is an independent agency, so the President appoints the members with Senate approval.

I'm not sure, but I think it's D) 5 members, appointed by the Secretary of Treasury of the U.S. That also sounds plausible to me.

I agree with Cherilyn, that answer makes sense because the President appoints the SEC members.
