- For solicited penny stock sales to new customers, a firm must provide a risk disclosure document and receive a signed suitability statement before the trade.
- The signed suitability statement rule is waived for unsolicited trades and for "established customers."
- An established customer is one who has had an account for over a year or has made three prior penny stock purchases on different days.
- For all penny stock trades, firms must disclose current quotes and the compensation for both the firm and the representative.
