Legislative and Lobbying Activities
One of the primary responsibilities of the FSDA is to represent its members’ interests before the Florida Legislature. When deemed necessary by the Board of Governors on specific issues, lobbyists are retained by the Association advance or to oppose legislation. FSDA members, and Board members in particular, are encouraged by the Association to contact their Legislators on issues of significance to the securities industry.
Relations with Regulators
The FSDA works to maintain open communications with state regulatory authorities. This is accomplished primarily by keeping regulatory authorities apprised of the activities and accomplishments of the FSDA, by periodic contacts between the FSDA members and regulators, and by informing regulators of FSDA members’ concerns relative to proposed regulatory action. Both state and federal regulators are invited to the FSDA’s Annual Convention, as both speakers and/or guests.
