Description

This is a sample survey for an investment adviser firm to determine whether its supervised persons are insiders of a publicly traded company or affiliated directly or indirectly with a publicly traded company.

Section 204A of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 requires investment advisers (whether SEC-registered or not) to establish, maintain, and enforce written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent the misuse of material, nonpublic information by the investment adviser or any of its associated persons.  In order to properly design and implement such insider trading policies and procedures, an investment adviser firm should ascertain whether any of its supervised persons are named insiders or have direct or indirect relationships with other individuals who are insiders of publicly traded companies.

Included in Gold and Platinum Packages. Last Updated 2/2021.
