Regulatory Compliance

A trusted financial system depends on smart, effective regulation. SIFMA collaborates with regulators and member firms to modernize compliance frameworks, ensuring they are practical, risk-based, and aligned with today’s technology.

We advocate for rules that uphold investor protection while enabling innovation—on issues like communications retention, e-delivery, and Regulation Best Interest. Through analysis, coordination, and industry leadership, SIFMA helps firms navigate complex regulatory changes and maintain compliance in a dynamic market environment.
