Foreword

The Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) exam introduces many technical financial terms that can feel overwhelming, especially if you do not have a background in finance. You might find yourself lost in definitions and terminology, but the good news is that you do not need to understand every term in depth. The SIE is a broad exam that mainly tests your recognition of financial concepts, not mastery of each one.
There are only about three to four mathematical questions on the exam, such as those related to bond yields. For that reason, we have removed those topics from this book to keep it focused and practical. This book is designed to help you pass the SIE in two weeks, with a clear and simplified approach.
The amount of material may seem mind boggling at first, but do not let that shake your confidence. Take your time, stay consistent, and remember to take care of your body and mind. Exercise regularly, take breaks, and most importantly, get a good night's sleep before the final exam.
