Finra Unscripted

Last year, as FINRA staff looked to adjust to a new exam and risk monitoring program structure, the industry and the world was struck with an unprecedented global crisis. On this episode, the second in a two-part series, we hear from Ornella Bergeron, senior vice president of the carrying and clearing and diversified firm groups; Tom Nelli, senior vice president of exams and standards; Bill St. Louis, senior vice president of the retail and capital markets firm groups; and Tim Thompson, senior vice president of the trading and execution firm group on how FINRA adjusted its Exam and Risk Monitoring program in the face. Then, we turn to the current year to talk about the new 2021 Report on FINRA’s Examination and Risk Monitoring Program to discuss insights on recent exam findings and priorities for the year ahead. Resources mentioned in this episode:Episode 79: Year in Review: The 2020 Exam and Risk Monitoring Program2021 Report on FINRA’s Examination and Risk Monitoring Program
