Licensing of investment advisers and representatives of investment advisers.
1. It is unlawful for any person to transact business in this State as an investment adviser or as a representative of an investment adviser unless licensed or exempt from licensing under this chapter.
2. It is unlawful for an investment adviser to employ, to engage in any activity in this State, any person who is suspended or barred from association with a broker-dealer or investment adviser by the Administrator. An investment adviser does not violate this subsection unless the investment adviser knows or in the exercise of reasonable care should know of the suspension or bar. Upon request from an investment adviser and for good cause shown, the Administrator, by order, may waive the prohibition of this subsection with respect to a person suspended or barred.
