final posting on the firm's books and records.
He illuminates the
specialized attributes of each function in a typical brokerage firm, as
well as their relationships with commercial banks, transfer agents,
clearing corporations, and depositories.
Weiss details the requirements
for new accounts and how the firms supervise established cash, margin,
joint, and power-of-attorney accounts.
The book also delves into the
different types of securities, from common stock to corporate bonds to
futures and options.
Updated material provides the latest information on
mutual fund processing, web-based trading, processing transaction in
restricted securities, currency trading and trade processing, third market
trading, and prime brokerage.
