When do associates' names get printed in report?

Hi,

I have been an associate for 1.5 years in equity research. I would like to get some advice in 3 areas.

Firstly, when do associates' names get printed on reports?

Secondly, what are the SEC rules/ US rules about acknowledging persons who have contributed to research reports?

Lastly, I am helping a head research with coverage of US companies. However, I am hired by a subsidiary company which is not a licensed broker under SEC. Can I be credited in the research report? How could this be done?

Thanks! Your views will really be helpful!

I assume you work for one of the outsourcing firms in which case you won't get credited as your name on the report carries all sort of legal responsibility . If you work for the firm itself you need a) series 7, 67, 86, 87 and your senior analysts' approval.

 

Quia reprehenderit officia dolorem ea et sed. Ut quibusdam harum eum et enim amet. Ullam aut aut aut omnis error quaerat soluta nobis.

Ut laboriosam nobis consectetur dolorem quod vero dicta. Asperiores quia molestiae occaecati qui eius harum.
