Registration by Coordination

Registration by coordination applies to larger, national or regional interstate securities offerings that are required to register at both the federal and state levels. The registrations are coordinated by simultaneous filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), New Mexico Securities Division (Securities Division) and other state securities agencies. Federal and state registrations can become effective simultaneously if there are no outstanding deficiencies based on the Securities Division requirements at the time the SEC declares a registration effective.
