The United States if a free country. All regulatory agencies have a responsibility to protect our freedoms, not restrict them. All financial regulators have a responsibility to ensure investors are adequately informed, but they have no right to restrict our freedom to invest freely as we choose. By limiting access to investments, you limit innovation and also subject retail investors to the necessity of paying expensive fees to an investment advisor.
FINRA’s Renewal Program supports the collection and disbursement of fees related to the renewal of broker-dealer (BD) and investment adviser (IA) registrations, exempt reporting and notice filings with participating self-regulatory organizations (SRO) and jurisdictions. FINRA communicates information about renewal fees BD and IA firms owe via a Preliminary Statement in November and publishes a Final Statement in January to confirm or reconcile the actual renewal fees BD and IA firms owe after Jan. 1, 2023.
