Respuesta :

Answer: B) Brokerage companies must have a Do Not Call Policy, even if they do not engage in cold calling.

Explanation:

The National Do-Not-Call Registry allows for people to be able to avoid being called by marketers. They simply put their phone numbers down and telemarketers must check to see if their number are on this list before they call them. If called and the number is on the list, the marketer may be liable to more than $20,000 for the violation.

As per regulations passed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), brokerage firms must have a Do Not Call Policy, even if they do not engage in cold calling.
