    Who needs to register in Indiana

    Any Registered Investment Adviser with a principal place of business in Indiana, or with clients located in Indiana above the de minimis threshold, must register with the Indiana Secretary of State — Securities Division or — if eligible — with the SEC.

    Indiana-specific nuance

    Indiana charges $200 for RIA registration and requires each IAR to hold Series 65 or a qualifying professional designation.
