Requisitos

• The Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) exam is an entry-level test designed for individuals seeking to enter the securities industry. It has no sponsorship or affiliation requirements, meaning you do not need to be associated with a FINRA-member firm to take the exam. Open to anyone aged 18 or older, the SIE has no specific educational or work experience prerequisites, making it accessible to students, career changers, or anyone exploring opportunities in the financial services sector. Registration, which includes an $100 fee, can be completed through FINRA’s system or authorized testing centers like Prometric. While passing the SIE demonstrates foundational knowledge of the securities industry, it does not qualify an individual to conduct securities business; additional qualification exams, such as the Series 6 or Series 7, and association with a FINRA-member firm are required for registration as a representative.
