Identity Theft and Wire Fraud Policies and Procedures

November 19, 2013


Reading time : 2 minutes

The compliance date, November 20, 2013, for the SEC’s Regulation S-ID: Identity Theft Red Flags Rule is quickly approaching.  If your investment adviser is required to comply with these new rule requirements, you must have policies and procedures in place to address risks of identity theft by the November 20, 2013, compliance date.  Every investment adviser should take the appropriate steps to protect its clients from identity theft and wire order fraud, even if it is not required to comply with Regulation S-ID.

RIA Compliance Consultants presented a webinar on October 17, 2013, to discuss the SEC’s new rule requirements and best practices all investment advisers should consider to protect their clients and clients’ assets from identity theft and third-part wire fraud.  If you would like more information on the new rule requirements or steps your investment adviser should take, a recorded version of this webinar is now available through our online store.  Additionally, we have prepared template policies and procedures that investment advisers can use to develop their identity theft and wire fraud prevention policies and procedures.  RIA Compliance Consultants has the following options available for investment advisers looking for assistance with understanding the requirements and steps that should be taken and developing the new policies and procedures:
