In Regulatory Wrap for the week to September 15, 2023, we take a look at the SEC's Marketing Rule and important enforcement action surrounding the topic.
In this Regulatory Wrap we explore the SEC’s Marketing Rule which came into force in November 2022. Despite confusion about how to comply with the Marketing Rule, the SEC has repeatedly warned firms that it will be a key area of focus in 2023 and beyond. This week, the SEC showed that it is taking Marketing Rule compliance seriously, and issued fines to 9 advisory firms for failures.
