What is MSD?

Banks that deal in municipal securities through a separately identifiable department register as municipal securities dealers on Form MSD rather than registering as broker-dealers. EDGAR titles it "Registration of Municipal Securities Dealer".

The filings identify the bank, its municipal securities department and the persons responsible for it. They are mostly scanned paper documents.

Who files

Banks and separately identifiable departments or divisions of banks that act as municipal securities dealers.

When it is filed

Before engaging in municipal securities dealing, with amendments when information changes.
