Finra Exam SIE Topic 2 Question 7 Discussion

Actual exam question for Finra's SIE exam
Question #: 7
Topic #: 2
[All SIE Questions]

When are registered persons required to fulfill their Continuing Education (CE) Regulatory Element requirement?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

FINRA's Continuing Education (CE) requirements include the Regulatory Element, which must be completed:

Within 120 days of the second anniversary of a registered representative's initial registration.

Every three years thereafter (changed to every two years as of 2023).

C is correct because registered persons must complete the CE Regulatory Element after their initial requirement and then every two years.

A and B are incorrect because CE is not required annually or semiannually.

D is incorrect because CE is not tied to customer complaints.

I'm going with C. It's important to keep our knowledge up-to-date, but not to the point of overkill. Every two years sounds about right.

Haha, D is clearly a joke option. As if a customer complaint would make you take your CE exam again. That's just ridiculous.

A or B would be my guess, but C sounds more plausible. Gotta stay on top of those regulations, you know?

I think C is correct, it's every two years after the initial three-year requirement.

D seems like a strange option. Why would a customer complaint trigger the CE requirement? That doesn't seem related at all.

I agree, option D doesn't make sense. It should be based on a set schedule.

I think the answer is C. It makes sense to have a longer initial requirement and then a recurring one every two years.
