Where Can the Series 66 Take Your Career?

🟦 Where Can the Series 66 Take Your Career?

The Series 66 license, also known as the Uniform Combined State Law Exam, is a powerful credential for aspiring financial professionals. When paired with the Series 7 license, it opens the door to a wide range of investment advisory and securities roles—especially for those who want to provide fee-based advice and manage client portfolios.

🎯 What the Series 66 Allows You to Do

The Series 66 license qualifies individuals to act as:

• Investment Adviser Representatives (IARs)
• Registered Representatives (with a Series 7)
• Wealth Managers
• Financial Planners
• Portfolio Consultants

It combines the content of Series 63 (state law) and Series 65 (investment advisory) into one exam, streamlining the licensing process for those with a Series 7.

💼 Career Opportunities with Series 66

With a Series 66 and Series 7 combo, you can:

• Join a Registered Investment Adviser (RIA) firm
• Work at a broker-dealer offering fee-based services
• Manage client portfolios and offer investment advice
• Open your own advisory practice
• Advance into high-trust roles such as fiduciary planner or wealth strategist

The license is especially valuable for those seeking hybrid roles—offering both product sales and personalized advisory services.

🌎 National Reach, State-Level Compliance

The Series 66 is recognized by most U.S. states, allowing you to operate across state lines—provided you meet registration requirements with each state’s regulator.

🛠️ What You Can’t Do with Just Series 66

The Series 66 does not authorize the sale of securities by itself. You must also pass the Series 7 to be fully registered. It also doesn’t cover insurance products—you’ll need a separate insurance license for that.

📈 Career Growth with Series 66

This license is a stepping stone toward advanced certifications such as:

• Certified Financial Planner (CFP®)
• Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA®)
• Chartered Investment Counselor (CIC)

It demonstrates both compliance competency and advisory expertise, helping you gain credibility with clients and employers alike.
