Nevada Revised Statutes Title 54. Professions, Occupations and Businesses § 645H.730. Knowledge of associate or employer of violation by asset management company or asset manager; penalties

1. Any unlawful act or violation of any of the provisions of this chapter by any asset management company or asset manager is not cause to suspend, revoke or deny the renewal of the certificate of registration or permit of an asset management company or asset manager associated with an asset management company or asset manager, unless it appears to the satisfaction of the Division that the associate knew or should have known thereof. A course of dealing shown to have been persistently and consistently followed by any asset management company or asset manager constitutes prima facie evidence of such knowledge upon the part of the associate.

2. If it appears that a registered asset management company knew or should have known of any unlawful act or violation on the part of an asset manager employed by the asset management company, in the course of his or her employment, the Division may suspend, revoke or deny the renewal of the certificate of registration of the asset management company and may assess a civil penalty of not more than $5,000.

3. The Division may suspend, revoke or deny the renewal of the certificate of registration of an asset management company and may assess a civil penalty of not more than $5,000 against the asset management company if it appears that the asset management company has failed to maintain adequate supervision of an asset manager associated with the asset management company and that asset manager commits any unlawful act or violates any provision of this chapter.
