|
| As the only trade association solely dedicated to the unique and specific regulatory, legislative, market practice and business interests of regional and small sell-side dealers active in the U.S. debt markets, the RBDA ensures federal regulators and policy makers hear the interest of our members loud and clear. |
|
| Full membership is open to any registered, sell-side regional securities dealer active in the fixed income capital markets. Prospective members must complete an application for membership and agree to the mission and principles as offered by the RBDA board of directors. Membership dues are tied directly to fixed income revenue with a minimum and maximum cap. |
|
| Associate memberships are available to technology providers, law firms, rating agencies, credit enhancers, GSEs and others with direct business interests in regional fixed income. Associate members of RBDA receive many, but not all, of the same benefits as full members: Member rates at conferences and events; 20% discount on sponsorships and exhibits; logo and web link placed on RBDA home page; RBDA committee participation—excluding executive committees. |
|
| Annual sponsorships are also available and include all of the benefits of associate membership in addition to prominent signage and recognition at RBDA conferences and events. |
|
| Membership allows RBDA members to collaborate and network on issues of unique interest to regional dealers. The product of this collaboration is then presented to key federal regulators and policy makers to ensure improved efficiencies for the U.S. domestic fixed income markets. |
|
Sampling of Member Benefits:
- Agenda setting based on issues specific to regional fixed income

|
| Annual Dues: |
|
| RBDA dues for full members are based on trailing year, gross fixed income revenue with minimum and maximum annual caps. Associate member dues and annual sponsorships are a flat rate based on overall fixed income market presence. |
