Kinetic Partners Sees SEC Mock Examinations as Key Resource in 2012

Investment managers ramp up preparations in the wake of Dodd-Frank Act

NEW YORK--()--As the industry continues to adjust to the changes brought on by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, SEC mock examinations are becoming a key resource for investment managers, according to Kinetic Partners, a global professional services firm to the asset management, investment banking and brokerage community.

With government oversight becoming more stringent and prevalent than ever before, SEC mock examinations help ensure that firms are fully compliant with industry-related legislation. The examinations enable advisors to correct deficiencies, enhance compliance policies and procedures, and reduce the risk of an adverse SEC determination.

A mock examination will also give firms the opportunity to review and, if necessary, prepare for a potential SEC visit. In addition, this type of process combined with proactive engagement in compliance assistance can be a valuable tool in helping get to your firm in order to raise funds. “With all of the regulatory changes now taking place across the industry and the level of transparency steadily increasing, SEC mock examinations are quickly becoming a crucial tool for ensuring your firm meets all of the applicable industry laws and regulations that have been implemented throughout recent months,” said Jonathan Saxton, Member at Kinetic Partners. “We offer a thorough review of the firm’s business and develop a robust compliance infrastructure that reflects the findings of our inspection.”
