Overview of the webinar

Rule 17j-1. Effective Date: August 31, 2004. Compliance Date: January 7, 2005. Effective January 7th, 2005 registered investment advisers, had to comply by adopting and implementing written policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Advisers Act. The compliance program shall be designed to prevent, detect and correct violations of the Advisers Act. The overall compliance program must review those policies and procedures at least annually for their adequacy and the effectiveness of their implementation and designate a Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) to be responsible for administering the firm’s policies and procedures (under the “Compliance Rule” — Rule 206(4)-7).  In order to have an effective compliance program, policies and procedures must be created. In order to ensure the compliance program is effective, an annual review is required.

Why should you attend?

The Annual Review is perhaps the most important aspects of an effective compliance program. Knowing how to properly create and maintain an effective review program for your firm is key to its success. Often it is helpful to get a third party to give you guidance in that area. This webinar will give you the tools you need to create an effective and manageable program.
The Regulations indicate that a manual is required. This session will give you the tools you need to design the manual that is customizable to your firm and ways it can be managed and tested to ensure its efficiency.
