What changed

Montana resolved notice-filing violations through nine settlement agreements totaling $59,900 for the restitution fund.

Compliance perspective

Firms with securities notice-filing obligations should verify that state notice filings are complete and timely, especially in jurisdictions that pair filing failures with public settlements. Small filing misses can still create public enforcement history.

Key date

Effective date: June 24, 2026.
