• COMMITTEE ON UNIFORM SECURITIES PROCEDURES (CUSIP)
  
  The Committee on Uniform Securities Procedures (CUSIP) assigns codes and numbers to all US exchange-traded securities. The CUSIP identification number is used to track the securities when they are bought and sold. You'll find the CUSIP number on a confirmation statement from your broker, for example, and on the face of a stock certificate.
