NASD Operations Center Opens in Roekville, Maryland; New Addresses and Telephone Numbers
TO: All NASD Members and Other Interested Persons
The ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new 110,000-square-foot NASD Operations Center, which will serve the NASD membership and the NASDAQ market, will be September 17, 1986. The facility, located 18 miles north of Washington, D.C., in Rockville, Maryland, will support 200-million-share trading days and provide the first complete, back-up computer communications system of any securities market in the world.
NASD departments that rely heavily on computer services will be relocated from the NASD's Executive Office headquarters at 1735 K Street, N.W., Washington, D.C., to the Rockville site in three phases between September and October. Correspondence to the departments relocating should be directed to:
NASD Operations Center
9513 Key West Avenue
Rockville, Maryland 20850
All information relating to the Central Registration Depository (CRD), including filings of Forms U-4 and U-5 (Uniform Application for Securities Industry Registration or Transfer and Uniform Termination Notice for Securities Industry Registration) should be sent to:
NASD/CRD
P.O. Box 6011
Rockville, Maryland 20850
This new post office box for NASD/CRD filings is effective immediately. However, forms with the old address may be used until supplies are exhausted.
Telephone numbers for key employees relocating to the Rockville site will be listed in an updated Guide to Information and Services, which will be available in November 1986. General telephone numbers for the departments relocating to Rockville are:
