📋 FINRA Audit Preparation Overview

Turn audit anxiety into audit confidence.

FINRA audits are rigorous, high-stakes examinations of your firm’s operations, financials, and compliance posture. Our audit prep service ensures you're not just ready—you’re resilient. We help you anticipate examiner focus areas, organize documentation, and align your internal practices with FINRA’s evolving standards.

🔧 What We Deliver

  • Pre-Audit Risk Assessment
    We identify gaps in supervisory procedures, recordkeeping, digital signature controls, and financial reporting—before FINRA does.
  • Document Readiness & Organization
    From customer account records to AML policies, we ensure your materials are complete, current, and audit-ready.
  • Policy & Procedure Review
    We align your Written Supervisory Procedures (WSPs) with FINRA rules, including recent updates like Regulatory Notice 22-18 on digital signature fraud.
  • FinOp & Compliance Support
    We verify that your Financial and Operations Principal (FinOp) is properly designated and that net capital requirements are being met.
  • Audit Simulation & Coaching
    We walk your team through mock audits, examiner-style questioning, and response strategies to reduce stress and improve outcomes.
