2017 Regulatory and Examination Priorities Letter-Part 4
From the Desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law LLC:
This is the fourth in a series of posts to discuss FINRA’s 2017 Regulatory and Examinations Priorities Letter. FINRA’s 2017 letter provides information about areas FINRA plans to review in 2017 based on observations from its regulatory programs as well as input from various sources, including member firms, other regulators and investor advocates.
FINRA plans on focusing on firms’ obligations with respect to their registered representatives’ outside business activities and intends to evaluate those firms’ existing process and procedures. Specifically, FINRA will review both the firms’ notification procedures in place with respect to private securities transactions, as well as how firms evaluate their registered representatives’ outside business activities.
