Ethan Hattendorf Comment On Regulatory Notice 25-07

The FINRA requirement to maintain at least half our work time in office, rather than working 100% remotely. It seems clear that we were able to function via a fully remote work environment during the COVID19 pandemic lockdown and the mandatory work in office is unnecessary. Moreover, the requirement to work in office increasingly feels antiquated and deleterious to many brokers' mental health and function. I would strongly encourage FINRA to rescind the mandatory in office requirements and allow agents who want to do so to remain fully remote.
