New Recommendations by the FINRA Dispute Resolution Task Force (14th Article)

From the Desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law LLC:

This is the fourteenth in a series of posts to discuss the 51 recommendations that the FINRA Dispute Resolution Task Force (Task Force) has made to the National Arbitration and Mediation Committee (NAMC). NAMC is FINRA’s standing board advisory committee.                     

The Task Force recommended that FINRA review and update its website and recruitment material to ensure that it conveys a message that it wants diverse individuals with a variety of different backgrounds to work for its organization.                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

FINRA agreed with the Task Force’s recommendation and it revised the recruitment materials on the website to ensure that it lays out a message of inclusiveness and targets a broader range of industries.

TESTIMONIALS

Jim, Stephany and the whole team were a God send.  We felt like we were put into a situation where we had no advocate. Jim’s team came in with a strong, well laid out strategy on how to get our story heard. Where our outside compliance company had no ability to help, our Broker Dealer was impenitent, and the regulators were aggressive pursuing vague rules, Jim came like a barricade against an assault we did not understand. Though you pay member dues to be affiliated with FINRA and a B/D, you have no voice. The only thing that is truly heard in this un-level playing field is a bulldog’s bark like Jim’s. I would encourage anyone to call Jim and his team to find a real ally in the tough and complicated world of securities regulation. They are truly the best.
