How often must a brokerage download the updated do-not-call registry?

The correct answer lies in the requirement set forth by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regarding the National Do Not Call Registry. Brokerages must download the updated do-not-call registry every 31 days to ensure compliance with telemarketing regulations. This frequency allows businesses to maintain an up-to-date list of numbers that consumers have opted not to receive marketing calls from, thus protecting consumers’ rights and abiding by legal standards. Regular updates are crucial for brokerages to avoid calling individuals who have registered on the list, safeguarding them from potential fines and penalties associated with violations.
