  • All capital market operators planning on mergers and acquisitions or any reclassification of their functions have July 31 to do so as their deadlines. this directive is from The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
  • The July 4 directive also applies to capital market operators  seeking to downsize from stockbroker to sub-broker, broker-dealer to either broker or dealer and from multiple functions to a single function, among others.
  • The directive, according to a source at the Commission, is part of the compliance and enforcement process as the apex capital market regulator prepares to enforce the September 31 deadline for the new minimum capital requirements for capital market operators.
