Don’t wait until the last minute to submit your annual renewal fees. FINRA must be in receipt of the full payment listed on the Preliminary Renewal Statement, which is now available, by Monday December 16, 2019. Investment advisers with sufficient funds in their Flex-Funding Account to cover the Preliminary Renewal Statement payment will have funds automatically transferred beginning December 16, 2019 to the Renewal Account to cover total renewal fees owed. Investment advisers that choose to mail in their payments are advised to do so now to avoid delays and to ensure funds are received by the deadline. If your investment adviser would like assistance with the annual renewal service, click here for more information on or to purchase RIA Compliance Consultants’ IARD Renewal Program and ADV Amendment Services.
