Technology shouldn’t slow you down – it should make you more efficient. That’s why FINRA is launching the new FINRA Gateway.
The new compliance portal, powered by FINRA's Digital Experience Transformation, is designed to streamline the FINRA compliance and reporting experience by providing a more flexible solution that can be customized to target your specific needs.
The new system, which will be implemented in stages, focuses on compliance functions, such as research, reporting and responding to requests, rather than on compliance systems. This will ultimately help you perform your compliance tasks more efficiently.
How Is FINRA Gateway Doing This?
- The Dashboard: Streamlined navigation will get you to the work or information you need faster.
- Requests: A list of all digital FINRA requests and work due will be consolidated in a single place—with the ability to save filtered and sorted views.
- Profiles: Unique Firm, Branch and Individual profiles will allow for better navigation and quick access to the forms you need when you need them.
- Reports: A new dynamic and customized reporting capability will allow you to create, save and export of your registered individual and branch information.
- Support: Have issues along the way? Quickly submit your support issues online through the system rather than on the phone.
- Quick Links: Direct links back to the ‘Classic’ FINRA applications and features you are accustomed to using, enabling you to transition to the new features on your timeline.
What Will FINRA Gateway Ultimately Replace?
- Firm Gateway: FINRA Gateway entirely replaces Firm Gateway, which will remain available at least through the end of 2020.
- Compliance Calendar: Your firm-specific Compliance Calendar reminders/tasks are now included in the FINRA Requests feature. The existing Compliance Calendar on FINRA.org and Firm Gateway have not yet changed and will be migrated into FINRA Gateway in 2021.
- New CRD: Functionality previously built as part of New CRD will be incorporated into FINRA Gateway.
- Registration Tasks: FINRA Gateway will become the primary way you navigate registration related tasks currently found in Web CRD.
- Other FINRA Regulatory Systems Found in Firm Gateway: New functionality will be released to replace other systems, such as the FINRA Contact System, over time.
