Registration records show 2,973 affiliation changes over Sept. 18–20

A total of 2,973 affiliation changes were recorded from Sept. 18 through Sept. 20, 2026. The count breaks down into 558 registration changes marked Added, 2,074 marked Updated and 341 marked Removed. Those labels describe changes to affiliation records; they are not a count of verified job moves.

What the record categories show

The largest category was Updated, at 2,074 records, compared with 558 Added and 341 Removed. The classifications capture different recorded changes, so an update should not automatically be read as a change of employer, and a removal alone does not establish that someone left a firm. The records do not supply employment start or end dates.

Six selected records

• Quentin Hale — On Sept. 19, an affiliation with Fifth Third Securities was marked removed. The record listed an approved Indiana RA registration and a Princeton, Indiana, branch location before the change.
• Edward C. Millay — On Sept. 19, an affiliation with Sei Investments Management was marked removed. The record listed approved RA registrations in Kentucky and Pennsylvania, and branch locations in Oaks, Pennsylvania, and Bellevue, Kentucky.
• Nicholas P. Altieri — On Sept. 19, his Morgan Stanley affiliation was marked updated. The before record listed a Boston branch; the after record listed Boston, New York and Greenwich, Connecticut. The listed RA registration authorities remained Connecticut, New Jersey, New York and Texas.
• Kimberly L. Horstmann — On Sept. 19, her Merrill Lynch affiliation was marked updated. The record changed from two Chandler, Arizona, branch entries to one; the remaining entry was labeled CI Relationship Management. The listed RA registration authorities remained California and Texas.
• Shahmeer Danish — An affiliation with J.P. Morgan Securities was marked added on Sept. 18. The record listed a Houston branch and an approved Texas RA registration dated Sept. 17.
• Jacob M. LaFond — An affiliation with MML Investors Services was marked added on Sept. 19. The record listed Roseville and Citrus Heights, California, branch locations and RA registrations in California and Texas, both dated Sept. 18.

The selected records show why the categories need to be read literally. Altieri’s record retained the same firm and listed registration authorities while adding New York and Greenwich branch locations to the after record; Horstmann’s retained one of two Chandler entries. Neither record, on its own, establishes a job change. The additions for Danish and Lafond are recorded affiliations, not evidence about client or asset transfers.
