Common gaps
Most-missed SEC compliance items
Form ADV Amendments
Material changes to your business — new services, disciplinary history, conflicts — trigger a Form ADV amendment within 30 days. Most firms miss the trigger.
Marketing Rule (206(4)-1)
Testimonials, endorsements, and performance advertising now require specific disclosures. The SEC has flagged non-compliant materials in nearly every sweep exam since the 2021 rule.
Custody Rule Updates
Constructive custody — taking standing letters of authorization, certain custodial arrangements — triggers annual surprise examinations most advisers don't know they qualify for.
Exam Sweep Priorities
OCIE publishes annual exam priorities in January. Firms that align their compliance calendars to these priorities dramatically reduce deficiency letters.
