What are the topics covered by a Boulder Series 7 exam course?

The prerequisite test for the Series 7 exam is the Securities Industry Essentials Exam, or SIE. In order to take the Series 7, you must be sponsored by a member firm of FINRA or a self-regulatory organization (SRO).
The Series 7 exam covers a broad range of financial topics and securities regulations. The bulk of the exam focuses on equity and debt instruments, investment risk, packaged securities, taxation, retirement plans, options, and interactions with clients. There are 135 questions, 125 of which count towards the final score. Candidates have to score at least 72 percent to pass. A Series 7 license is a requirement for entry-level brokers. Candidates who pass the Series 7 exam can trade securities such as stocks, mutual funds, municipal securities, options, and variable contracts. The license doesn't cover selling life insurance products or real estate.
Some of the things that you can study in a Series 7 exam course are evaluating customer profiles and investment objectives, how to make recommendations about investments, how to maintain appropriate records, and how to confirm transactions.
