The Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board issued a new notice on Rule G-37 recently regarding changes in the reporting form to accommodate new requirements.

Effective February 1, 2010, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (“MSRB”) amended its Rule G-37 to require the disclosure of certain contributions to bond ballot campaigns made by dealers on amended Form G-37. MSRB Rule G-8 was also amended to require dealers to create and maintain records of such contributions to bond ballot campaigns. Reportable contributions made through March 31, 2010 must be disclosed on amended Form G-37, which is required to be submitted to the MSRB on or prior to April 30, 2010
