Advocacy

The Membership Advocacy Committee (MAC™) works diligently to investigate and confirm upcoming rules and regulations (R&R), then communicate their potential impact on Independent Broker/Dealers. As relevant issues arise, MAC™ initiates a positive, professional feedback plan.

First, NAIBD General Meeting attendees are notified of the upcoming rules and regulations, and feedback is gleaned. Second, an insightful, detailed letter is crafted in response to the proposed R&R (with regard to feedback) and made available to Independent Broker/Dealers in two ways. First, it is emailed to our NAIBD distribution list. Second, it is posted online at this website. These responses impact regulatory activities and have led to exemptions for Independent Broker/Dealers. Finally, MAC™ achievements are announced in trade journals and at NAIBD Events.
