Helping Your Investment Adviser Understand Investment Advisory Client Contracts

June 05, 2013


Reading time : 2 minutes

Routinely, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) will conduct examinations of investment adviser firms. During the examination process the SEC will request certain information or documents that the SEC examiners will review as part of the examination process. As part of the examination process, investment adviser can anticipate that their firm’s investment advisory agreements will be reviewed. Investment advisers may encounter deficiencies or similar regulatory violations if the investment adviser’s advisory contracts do not comply with the applicable SEC or state regulations.  Additionally, having in place a properly drafted investment advisory agreement or contract can help limit an investment adviser’s professional liability.
