Regulatory Notice 21-04

Summary

FINRA has amended its Codes of Arbitration Procedure for Customer and Industry Disputes (Codes) to: (1) increase the additional hearing-day honorarium chairs receive for each hearing on the merits from $125 to $250 and (2) create a new $125 chair honorarium for each prehearing conference in which the chair participates.1 To fund the increase in payments to chairs, the amendments make minimal increases to certain arbitration fees.
