Meeting on Proposed Bank Brokerage Rules

The Bank Securities Association has called a special meeting in Washington for Jan. 31 to solicit views on the National Association of Securities Dealers' proposed rules for bank brokerage operations.

The NASD is seeking public comment through Feb. 15 on the proposals, which would create a new framework for investment product sales through bank-related brokerages.

Bankers and brokers who attend the meeting will provide input for the BSA's comment letter and receive guidance in preparing their own comments, said James Shelton, president of the California-based trade group. The half-day meeting is open to members and nonmembers, and there is no charge for attending.

For further information, contact Mr. Shelton at 415-924-8010.
