Overview
Widespread advancements in technology & communication have significantly changed the way firms conduct their business and administer branch oversight. As a result, regulators, including FINRA and the SEC, are making efforts to modernize their rules and adapt to the evolution of remote supervisory practices that have carried firms through the pandemic.
During this webinar we discuss recent FINRA proposals impacting broker-dealer branch inspection programs. We highlight the Residential Supervisory Locations proposal, Supplementary Material .19 as well as FINRA’s Remote Inspections Pilot Program proposal, Supplementary Material .18 under FINRA Supervision Rule 3110.
Industry panelists also review practical challenges and opportunities facing audit teams, as well as the latest best practices that have emerged as firms continue to navigate in a post-pandemic era.
