In this blog, we’ll break down some of the key regulatory compliance education events being held by National Regulatory Services (NRS), a COMPLY® company this year. Mark your calendars because you won’t want to miss this.

The role of the compliance professional serving an investment adviser or broker-dealer is an ever-evolving one. And as it should be. In order to meet new regulations and increased risks, the role must adapt to the regulatory compliance space. However, the pace of change within the current landscape can make it difficult for professionals to keep up.

Which is why prioritizing your regulatory compliance education, and that of your entire firm, is such a critical initiative for 2023.

Investing in webinars, trainings and events led by investment adviser industry experts can help ensure you and your team stay up to date on the latest regulations and the best practices keeping firms like yours in compliance and manage risk.

In this blog, we’ll break down some of the key regulatory compliance education events being held by the National Regulatory Services company. Mark your calendars because you won’t want to miss this.

The following events are part of the Investment Adviser Certified Compliance Professional (IACCP®) Program  that the Investment Adviser Association (IAA) co-sponsors. The IACCP® certification responds to growing industry demand for advanced compliance education and nationally recognized professional standards. Participants receive a compliance education based on a solid understanding of all – including the latest – regulations and rules with which all investment advisers must comply.

Additionally, the Investment Adviser Core Compliance program provides essential training on the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and is a stepping-stone to the IACCP® Program and designation. It provides the foundational competence necessary to ensure both routine and newly required compliance obligations are consistently met.
