The “registration type” on your attendee registration should reflect your firm’s membership status at the Investment Company Institute.

ICI member firms consist of mutual fund companies, their investment advisers, and principal underwriters, who purchase and distribute directly or through stockbrokers and security dealers. Unit investment trust sponsors and closed-end funds registered with the SEC may also be members. Employees of ICI member firms and IDC member funds should always choose the member rate.

ICI associate member firms consist of broker-dealers registered with FINRA, and SEC-registered investment advisers who do not manage mutual funds (or subadvisers of mutual funds). Employees of ICI associate member firms may submit up to two registrations at the member rate; additional registrations should be submitted at nonmember rate. Law firms and accounting firms are not eligible for ICI membership.

If you are uncertain of your firm’s membership status, please check the membership listing or contact the ICI Conference Division at conferences@ici.org or 202-326-5968. If the registration type selected is incorrect, a payment adjustment may be necessary. ICI will contact you within 30 days after the event to make the adjustment.
