Online CLE FINRA Rule
Join us for this Knowledge Group Online CLE FINRA Rule Webinar. Through Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) Rule 8210, FINRA staff and adjudicators are given the authority to investigate a member firm’s books, records, and accounts for potential rule violation. Receiving a Rule 8210 request from the FINRA can be a great source of ordeal. Organizing the requested documents and information will need an intricate and thorough planning for seamless compliance. To avoid further damage in the course of the inquiry, it is imperative for companies to have a clear understanding of the subject of the 8210 letter. Counsel should be well-versed of the process involved as it’s critical in reducing the risks of adverse consequences.
