The new regulated members are Patrick Brett, Managing Director of Municipal Debt Capital Markets at Citi; Francis "Frank" Fairman, Managing Director and Head of Public Finance Services at Piper Jaffray & Co.; and Daniel Kiley, Managing Director and Head of Municipal Fixed Income Trading at Wells Fargo Advisors.
