A sure way to impress SEC examiners upon their next visit to your firm is with a solid track record of compliance program testing, results and documentation. The challenge arises in how to put together a realistic testing program given that your to-do list only grows longer with each passing day.

Let the answer be our November webinar, where we will bring together four experts – including two CCOs – to share realistic approaches to forensic testing, including time-saving scheduling and documentation tips that will leave you confident in your ability to get it all done.

They will share real-life examples of compliance tests – from custody to best execution, soft dollars to personal trading – that you can mimic, give you tools to help document your testing and findings, and outline ways to demonstrate to the SEC that you have a solid handle on your firm’s compliance program.
