Welcome to Regulate THIS! In this episode, we (Laila Shaver and Tracie Bear) tackle the topic of SEC exams - something many advisors dread but shouldn't have to fear if they're doing things right. We break down what happens during these audits, why they matter, and how to prepare for them without losing sleep.
We discuss the crucial role of a qualified Chief Compliance Officer and the pros and cons of in-house versus outsourced compliance solutions. Through real-world examples from our experience working with financial advisors, we explain the audit process, common triggers for regulatory review, and why documentation is your best friend.
Remember: if you're following the rules and documenting your work properly, you've already got a head start. Our mantra is "good compliance is good business" - it protects your firm, your clients, and ultimately your livelihood. So grab your pen and paper (or hit record) as we share insider tips on navigating SEC exams with confidence rather than fear.
