How to Get a Seat on the Stock Exchange

First, you must wait for a seat to become available. There are a limited number of seats on stock exchanges. In order to obtain a seat, one has to become available due to the death, insolvency or decision to sell by an existing member.
Next, you must obtain the votes necessary from other members of the exchange. These votes are required to become a member of the exchange. There is a strict review process required by people who wish to purchase a seat on a stock exchange. Once they have passed this review, they must abide by a code of ethics and compliance. Seat owners are continuously monitored by the stock exchange itself—and by government regulators. Regulators include FINRA which is a self-regulatory organization, and the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is a federal watchdog agency for the securities industry.
Stock exchange seats must be purchased. The price of a seat on the New York Stock Exchange can be as little as $4,000 and as much as $4,000,000. The price of seats is set by supply and demand and the price tends to fluctuate with the state of the economy. When the economy is booming, seats will sell for more. When the economy is slow, they will sell for less.
In addition to paying for the seat itself, the purchaser must also pay an initiation fee.
