When Hurricane Sandy blew into town, in addition to all the storm damage, it brought a whole lot of potential problems, as well as nastiness that had nothing to do with the weather and everything to do with man’s baser instincts. FINRA and the Securities and Exchange Commission have issued warnings and bulletins to help both advisors and the public better cope.
For financial professionals, FINRA issued a notice regarding regulatory and compliance relief for those directly affected by the storm.
Regulatory Notice 12-45 deals with a number of issues, “including emergency office relocations, continuing education requirements for registered personnel, registered personnel engaged in active military duty, regulatory filings and inquiries, membership applications and customer communications.”
The body also pointed out that there are additional Sandy advisories on its website at a dedicated page.
