Summary FINRA, as a self-regulatory organization, is informed by and benefits from engagement with and the expertise of our member firms, investors and other interested parties on regulatory and policy initiatives related to FINRA’s mission of promoting market integrity and investor protection.

The GASB Accounting Support Fee is collected on a quarterly basis from member firms that report trades to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB). Each member firm’s assessment is based on its portion of the total par value of municipal securities transactions reported by all FINRA member firms to the MSRB during the previous quarter.

In furtherance of the FINRA Forward initiative to support member compliance, FINRA has significantly enhanced Form NMA with improved navigation and document upload capabilities, integrated guidance tools, standardized response fields and clearer questions.

Arbitration is an important means for resolving disputes involving customers, FINRA member firms and their associated persons. FINRA’s Dispute Resolution Services (DRS) arbitration forum provides a fair and efficient alternative to litigation, promoting investor protection and market integrity.

Summary Effective April 4, 2026, the Section 31 fee rate applicable to specified securities transactions on the exchanges and in the over-the-counter markets will increase from its current rate of $0.00 per million dollars in transactions to a new rate of $20.60 per million dollars in transactions.
