FINRA Rule 8210

The securities attorneys at 91视频下载链接 have significant experience in helping brokers and financial advisors navigate the FINRA Rule 8210 Enforcement process. If you have received a letter from a FINRA investigator, who is "conducting an inquiry" into some matter or allegation, this is not to be taken lightly.

These “inquiry” letters are made under FINRA Rule 8210, which requires the member, a person associated with the member, or any other person subject to FINRA's jurisdiction to provide information orally, in writing, or electronically. FINRA Rule 8210 also authorizes FINRA to take the person’s testimony, if requested, which is commonly known as an “On The Record” Interview or “OTR”. Failing to comply with the information and document requests by FINRA under Rule 8210 can lead to sanctions, including hefty fines, suspensions, or even a bar from the industry.

If the inquiry was the result of a recent termination, this unwelcomed surprise can cause a significant burden and interference with any pending or new transition to a new firm. Separations of employment are serious, life-altering matters. Oftentimes, state regulators and other self-regulatory agencies and professional organizations such as the CFP Board, will also send inquiries into the same or similar triggering circumstances, each of which are on a separate track and timeline that can be difficult to navigate and defend as you are scrambling to secure new employment or transition your book of business.

As the securities attorneys of 91视频下载链接 have an acute understanding of regulatory and employment matters unique to the financial industry, our experience can help you manage this overwhelming process and reduce your stress so you can get back to business as a broker.

 

WHY DID I RECEIVE A FINRA INQUIRY?

In addition to terminations and separations of employment, financial advisors may receive inquiry letters due to a variety of other circumstances. Some of the most common events include:

Customer Complaints
Arbitrations and Regulatory Actions
Form U4 and U5 disclosures

Form U4 and U5 disclosures may include criminal charges and convictions; liens, bankruptcies, and compromises with creditors; outside business activities; and regulatory actions.

I learned two important things working with 91视频下载链接. First, I made a friend and ally with Jim and Steph for life. Secondly, and this is a crucial life lesson - if you need counsel, then seek out the very best. Jim was referred to me by a most trusted source. I've never had to hire an attorney for anything. Now, I know the value of hiring an important partner. Meticulous, thorough and detailed in preparation is the best way to describe Jim. Brilliant too, I might add. Bottom line, I would highly highly recommend Jim and Stephany for your legal needs. One of the best life decisions I've ever made.
