Expert FINRA Compliance Consulting: Stay Ahead of Regulators

At Cyber Husky, our FINRA compliance consulting services are designed for brokerages and stockbrokers to help them maintain strict regulatory oversight. Compliance is overseen by the agency to help firms and brokers avoid fines, suspensions and even being barred.

We offer more than managed IT services for financial firms – we keep you compliant.

Why FINRA Compliance Is Non-Negotiable for Your Firm

Regulations are in place to protect investors and firms that sell:

Bonds
Stocks
Securities
Mutual funds

As FINRA compliance consultants, we know that regulations are in place to protect public investors from unscrupulous firms. You cannot negotiate with regulators. Failure to comply can lead to:

Substantial fines
Loss of client trust
Business activity suspension
Barring from securities (sometimes for life)
Personal liability

Investors deserve protections that go beyond our vulnerability management services. FINRA fills this void by putting strict operational requirements in place that cover everything from cybersecurity to anti-money laundering and reporting.

What Our FINRA Compliance Consultants Do

Your firm should focus on client satisfaction while we handle the regulations. Our FINRA compliance services include, but are not limited to:

Gap analysis & readiness assessment

Outsource FINRA compliance services begin with a comprehensive evaluation of your current compliance posture against FINRA requirements. This includes:

Reviews of policies, procedures and controls
Identify vulnerabilities and areas of non-compliance
Assessments of supervisory systems and written supervisory procedures (WSPs)
Evaluating technology systems and data management practices
Benchmarking against industry best practices
Providing a prioritized remediation roadmap

This assessment helps firms understand their risk exposure before FINRA examinations occur.

Policy & procedure development

FINRA compliance consultants create frameworks for your firm to follow, including:

Written Supervisory Procedures (WSPs)
Anti-Money Laundering (AML) programs
Communication and advertising review procedures
Suitability and best interest standards documentation
Books and records retention policies
Cybersecurity and data protection protocols
Business continuity plans

FINRA compliance consulting ensures policies are practical, enforceable and scalable.

Ongoing monitoring & audits

Our FINRA data compliance services provide oversight to identify issues that can become violations, such as:

Transaction surveillance
Communications
Advertising

We prepare you for the time between examination cycles to strengthen compliance.

Training & culture build-out

FINRA compliance consultants offer recommendations for training, culture and even MDR services. We focus heavily on:

Training execs and supervisors
Onboarding programs
Annual compliance
Rule changes and updates

We help you create a culture that focuses on compliance first.

How to Choose the Right FINRA Compliance Consultant

Work with a FINRA compliance consulting firm that has a strong:

Regulatory background
Track record
Industry specialization

Review each candidate to better understand their communication style, professional certs, responsiveness, terms and deliverables. Performing your due diligence will reduce the risk of working with a consultant who doesn’t meet your needs.

Typical Cost Structure for FINRA Compliance Consulting

Every firm is unique. We structure our services to meet your individual needs.

Common FINRA Compliance Risks & How We Help You Mitigate Them

Firms often make these mistakes when it comes to compliance:

Inadequate data retention policies. Firms must store electronic records in WORM for a specific period of time. We implement compliant data storage and archiving systems to meet these requirements.
Weak cybersecurity controls. Client data must be protected. Gaps in access controls and encryption put firms at risk of breaches and fines. FINRA compliance services use layered cybersecurity defenses to ensure compliance.
Lack of electronic communication supervision. Unmonitored communication creates supervisory violations. We set up compliant communication workflows to help you document and meet FINRA cybersecurity requirements.
