TIER 1 RIA COMPLIANCE SUPPORT SERVICES PROGRAM

Our Premier Tier 1 full RIA Compliance Support Services Program enables the RIA Firms CCO to leverage the SimplyRIA’s team, resources, knowledge, and experience to fully support your Firm 24/7. We will develop, distribute, and collect all necessary documentation to the Company’s IARs and Access Personnel to support your internal compliance program. We will help set up a compliance documents electronic storage vault to share and update documents that must be protected and readily available for a surprise State or SEC audit!

SimplyRIA will supply compliance guidance, registration services with access to FINRA’s IARD system, and make available all necessary Firm, IAR, Access Personnel, and Client documents for the RIA’s CCO to support these activities.

The services included within the Tier 1 Compliance Support Services Program are as follows:

      • General Compliance Guidance, Support, and Availability for the CCO of RIA
      • Annual Renewal processing for the RIA and for each participating IAR of the RIA
      • Annual Amendment to Form ADV Part 2A of the RIA and 2B for each participating IAR of the RIA
