The information on this Web site has been prepared by the Securities Industry Conference on Arbitration (SICA), a group composed of representatives of various self-regulatory organizations (SROs), the Securities Industry Association (SIA), and public members. SICA established a uniform system for the resolution of disputes involving investors and broker/dealers, which has been adopted by each of the SROs that offer arbitration.
