African American Accountant Or Auditor With Calculator

FINRA released its 2021 Annual Financial Report, which details the regulator’s finances and enforcement program. FINRA’s enforcement reported $103 million in fines, $47 million in restitution to harmed investors, 1 firm was expelled, 386 brokers were suspended, and 269 brokers were barred. Significantly, FINRA made 2,390 referrals to state, federal, and international regulations.

Jon-Jorge Aras, Partner and Chair of Securities Litigation at Warren Law Group states, “FINRA’s report demonstrates an active enforcement practice, specifically against individual brokers. As a self-regulator, FINRA has expansive tools to obtain documents and information from individuals, who often make the mistake of representing themselves.”

If you are a financial industry professional, it is vital to be cognizant of FINRA’s rules and regulations in order to avoid investigations and enforcement actions.
