Welcome to the Agent Services section of this Learning Center. It is designed to facilitate communication with the agent community by providing information and reference documentation that is necessary to interact with The Depository Trust Company (DTC). If you haven't already, DTCC Learning recommends you familiarize yourself with the Agent Services page on DTCC.com, as it provides information related to:

• becoming a DTC-eligible agent,
• the FAST program (see also FAST Agent Learning Resources below),
• the Direct Registration System (DRS),
• the Securities Processing Application, and
• important forms and reference information about Corporate Actions.

The Agent Services section of the Learning Center assumes you have familiarized yourself with the information available on DTCC.com and are either ready to apply for FAST Agent membership, or are already a FAST Agent. In the latter case, be sure to access the FAST Agent Learning Resources, below.
