Securities Compliance Podcast: Compliance in Context

Podcast Season 3 Episode 14

On Episode 14 of Season 3 of the Securities Compliance Podcast: Compliance in Context, host Patrick D. Hayes is joined by Karen Barr from the Investment Adviser Association and Lisa Crossley from the National Society of Compliance Professionals. During the interview, the group discusses what’s happening in the investment adviser space, the rich history of both organizations, more recent DE&I efforts in the industry, and what has helped these women become the fantastic leaders they are today.

In the Headlines section, Patrick examines the recent criminal indictment of FTX founder Samuel Bankman-Fried and some recent comments from Commissioner Peirce on ESG. Finally, he wraps up the show with another installment of History Has Your Back, where we examine an old Navajo tradition that might help us polish the experiences over the last year and provide us with some perspective as we look toward 2023.

Quotes

11:00 - “The Investment Advisor Association is the leading association, advancing the interests of fiduciary investment advisory firms. And I do say ‘firms’ because we’re a trade administration. Our members represent the broader universe, both asset managers and RIAs, and they range in size from some of the largest asset managers in the world to the smaller five- and ten-person shop that really make up the core of our industry, and everything–everything–in between.” – Karen Barr

15:58 - “The mission of NSCP is to create a diverse professional community for compliance, by compliance. And I’m often asked, ‘What does that motto for compliance by compliance mean?’ NSCP is a 501C6 organization. It’s a membership organization versus the IAA, which is a trade organization…The ‘For compliance, by compliance’ comes from the fact that [the NSCP] is offering resources to compliance professionals, whether that’s conferences, webinars, forums, committees, our monthly publication, our ability to speak at our events…It is compliance professionals who help with all of those initiatives.” – Lisa Crossley
