Getting Started
To protect your security and the privacy of your data, FINRA employs a two-step process when granting access to the DR Portal.
- Create a user account (Note: you cannot use a FINRA Gateway account, Org account, or state CRD/IARD credentials on the DR Portal.) You must create a separate account.
- Wait for an invitation email from FINRA staff to complete the case registration process
- Case Participants: You will receive an invitation and must register for each case you are participating in.
- Neutrals: You will receive your invitation once approved to the roster. You only need to complete registration one time to access all your assigned cases.
