Key Takeaways

Key Takeaways

  1. Uyeda understands the amount of valuable resources required to handle the new rules implemented in 2023 and the likelihood of similar regulatory actions in 2024.

Vigilant's Conclusion

Vigilant’s Conclusion

The Commissioner clearly states to compliance professionals that “you have your work cut out for you”.

With the SEC showing no signs of slowing its implementation of numerous rules and amendments, the time of adjusting to changes “on the fly”  has long passed us.

As resources are stretched, Firms are looking for cost effective compliance solutions that allow them to focus on their business while avoiding significant regulatory burdens.

In a constantly changing regulatory environment, it may grow increasingly difficult to avoid the pitfalls of “do it yourself” compliance.
