New rules from FINRA move fast. Our AI reads every notice, rule filing, and regulatory update — then tells you exactly what changes, what it means for your practice, and what to do about it.
FINRA issues Regulatory Notices, rule filings, and guidance updates continuously. In 2023 alone, FINRA published over 30 regulatory notices covering topics from complex products to cybersecurity obligations. Keeping current is a compliance requirement — ignorance of a published rule is not a defense in a disciplinary proceeding.
Most compliance teams at mid-size RIAs and broker-dealers lack the bandwidth to read, interpret, and operationalize every FINRA update. This analysis does it for you — extracting exactly what changed, how it applies to your business model, and the specific actions you need to take before the effective date.
Plain-English explanation of what changed, what rule it amends, and the official FINRA notice or SEC filing number.
Specific analysis of how the change affects your firm type — RIA, broker-dealer, or dual registrant — based on your submitted profile.
Prioritized list of steps your compliance team must take — policy updates, supervisory procedure changes, disclosure revisions, or system changes.
Key dates: proposal comment deadline, final rule effective date, and any phase-in periods — mapped to your specific action items.
