Registered Investment Advisory firm - (8/20/2003 Terminated)

California

Registered Investment Advisory firm - (7/2/2003 Approved)

Why is a state registration marked "Terminated"? When a firm registers with the SEC (usually after managing $100M+ AUM), it often withdraws separate state firm registrations unless required by that state. The firm can still serve clients there through its individually registered Investment Advisor Representatives (IARs).
