New Specialist Commission Bill Codes for PER Merged Order Log Effective 10/27/1999 (IC #99-1317)

 

This memo is to clarify the PER Merged Order Log Commission Bill codes for equities (NOT INCLUDING ETFs) contained in IC #99-1317 as those codes (which incorporated previous codes by reference) were apparently confusing to some users. That Circular and the previous one are linked above for reference.
