Whether you’re looking to fulfill your annual SEC compliance program review as mandated by Rule 206(4)-7 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, your FINRA required annual review, need to conduct a gap analysis to determine if your firm is acting within the remit of its FCA Part 4A license permission, or want some assistance with thematic reviews or consistent regulatory consulting throughout the year, we can help.
Conducting periodic testing of your firm’s governance and control arrangements, as well as its policies and procedures, is essential to help avoid the cost and reputational risk of future scrutiny and potential enforcement.
Regulatory gaps, failings or weaknesses can result in fines, reputational damage, and even criminal sanctions.

Investment advisers often have robust compliance testing programs in place to ensure their staff and control environment remain a well-oiled machine. Most of the time, such testing programs are front of mind and on top of the daily, weekly, or monthly to-do list.
Yet over the past year – as compliance professionals have been forced to work from home during a global pandemic that comes with additional family obligations, enhanced day-to-day surveillance of staff, and adapting to changing expectations - testing has fallen to the bottom of the priority list. Unfortunately, the obligation to forensically test and/or stress test your compliance program remains.
