MSRB Issues Amended Interpretive Notice Regarding Digitized Rulebook
The MSRB issued a restated interpretive notice to MSRB Rule G-29 ("Availability of Board Rules") which states that the MSRB will no longer be printing and distributing its rulebook on an annual basis, but instead will be maintaining its rulebook online.
The new Rule G-29 interpretive notice states that dealers may still make the MSRB's rules available to customers by a number of other means, including providing access to the MSRB's website, and using printed versions or software products produced by other companies.
To ensure that the digital availability of MSRB rules meets the needs of municipal securities dealers and municipal advisors, the MSRB will provide a link on its website to a PDF file of the rulebook that will be updated on a quarterly basis with any new MSRB rules and amendments that have become effective.
