When an “IRMA” Is Not Quite an IRMA: Revisiting the Requirements of the Independent Registered Municipal Advisor Exemption
Why this matters
The document is a speech by the Director of the SEC Office of Municipal Securities, so it is classified as speech with no urgency since it is informational. The RSS summary supports only the municipal advisor registration exemption, so the sector and topic are limited to capital markets and authorisation/licensing. The provided list has no municipal advisor category, so Broker Dealer is the closest firm type, which is an approximation.
