Podcast

Securities Compliance Podcast: Compliance in Context

The second episode of the Securities Compliance Podcast: Compliance in Context™ features "What's New at OCIE."

At the start of each episode, host Patrick D. Hayes covers some of the “hottest” compliance topics of the day, focusing on the news and noteworthy events that impact your firm’s compliance program. This episode reviews the impact of the new accredited investor rule and some recent risk alerts focusing on cybersecurity.

The second segment of each show will take the master class to the next level and feature an expert guest to do a deep dive on a significant topic affecting our industry. In this episode, Patrick speaks with Natasha Greiner, the Associate Director of the IA/IC Examination Program within the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations. They discuss her work and the current state of the OCIE.

The final segment of this episode will launch the Outtakes series. If compliance were a TV show, think of this is as the bloopers reel, where Patrick looks at humorous activities carried out at financial services firms that hopefully provide us all with a roadmap of what not to do inside our firms and our compliance programs.
