MSRB Due Diligence Report Card

The MSRB Due Diligence Report Card is a monthly status report to help firms monitor their issuances being brought to market in order to support firm's due diligence efforts. The report shows how many total issuances have been brought to market and which of those had issuers with previous issuances in the market that are lacking current audited financial filings (LCF) on EMMA. If any of the issuances being brought to market have a previously issued CUSIP LCF, then the current issuance is identified on this report card.

The report offers two alternative views:

The Summary view, containing a monthly view of statistics on the number of missing financial filings and timeliness of issuances submitted by your firm; and
The Detailed Data view, which shows the details of these issuances.

Please note that your firm will not see 12 months of "MSRB Due Diligence Report Card" data until you have submitted 12 months of G-32 filings. Also each monthly report cared will display a snapshot of your firm's compliance at a particular point in time and will not be updated to reflect submission made after the report card is published. Please see the Summary View and Detailed Data View sections of the help document for more information.
