Broker/Dealer Regulation and Enforcement 2013


Select a Location:

Why you should attend

The Dodd-Frank Act - frequently described as the most sweeping reform legislation in decades - and the contemplated, proposed or final rules implementing it, have significant implications for broker-dealers. The concurrent proliferation of new regulation and record-breaking enforcement activity by the DOJ, SEC, CFTC, states and SROs have created a strained and overburdened environment for legal and compliance personnel. This program brings together a distinguished faculty of regulators, industry experts and leading practitioners to discuss issues that will help you keep up with the changing landscape of the business and its regulatory oversight.

What you will learn

  • Current regulatory issues being addressed by the regulators
  • Current examination and enforcement priorities of the SEC, CFTC, SROs and state regulators
  • Major criminal cases impacting broker-dealers
  • In-house lawyers’ and compliance officers’ regulatory and enforcement challenges, and their strategies and best tips for minimizing regulatory exposure

Who should attend

Attorneys and other professionals involved in securities, corporate, banking and finance, and insurance law; in-house counsel and compliance professionals, financial advisers, bankers and accountants; and those employed in supervisory positions throughout the financial services industry.

Please check the CLE Calculator above each product description for CLE information specific to your state.


Special Note: In New York, newly admitted attorneys may receive CLE credit only for attendance at "transitional" programs during their first two years of admission to the Bar. Non-traditional course formats such as on-demand web programs or recorded items, are not acceptable for CLE credit. Experienced attorneys may choose to attend and receive CLE credit for either a transitional course or for one geared to experienced attorneys.  All product types, including on-demand web programs and recorded items, are approved for experienced attorneys.

Please note: The State Bar of Arizona does not approve or accredit CLE activities for the Mandatory Continuing Legal Education requirement.

If you have already received credit for attending some or the entire program, please be aware that state administrators do not permit you to accrue additional credit for repeat viewing even if an additional credit certificate is subsequently issued.

Credit will be granted only to the individual on record as the purchaser unless alternative arrangements (prearranged groupcast) are made in advance.

This is a webcast of the live New York session.

Arkansas and Oklahoma: Audio-only live webcasts are not approved for credit.

 

1Indiana: Considered a distance education course. There is a 6 credit limit per year.

2New York: Newly admitted attorneys may not take non-transitional course formats such as on-demand audio or video programs or live webcasts for CLE credit. Newly admitted attorneys not practicing law in the United States, however, may earn 12 transitional credits in non-traditional formats.

3Ohio: To confirm that the live webcast has been approved, please refer to the list of Ohio’s Approved Self Study Activities at http://www.sconet.state.oh.us. Online programs are considered self-study. Ohio attorneys have a 6 credit self-study limit per biennial compliance period. The Ohio CLE Board states that attorneys must have a 100% success rate in clicking on timestamps to receive ANY CLE credit for an online program.

4 Pennsylvania: A live webcast may be viewed individually or in a group setting. Credit may be granted to an attorney who views a live webcast individually. There is a 4.0 credit limit per year for this type of viewing. A live webcast viewed in a group setting receives live participatory credit if the program is open to the public and advertised at least 30 days prior to the program. Live webcasts viewed in a group setting that do not advertise at least 30 days prior the program will be considered "in-house", and therefore denied credit.

5Virginia: All distance learning courses are to be done in an educational setting, free from distractions.


Running time and CLE credit hours are not necessarily the same. Please be aware that many states do not permit credit for luncheon and keynote speakers.

Note that some states limit the number of credit hours attorneys may claim for online CLE activities, and state rules vary with regard to whether online CLE activities qualify for participatory or self-study credits. For more information, refer to your state CLE website or call Customer Service at (800) 260-4PLI (4754) or email: info@pli.edu.

If you have already received credit for attending some or the entire program, please be aware that state administrators do not permit you to accrue additional credit for repeat viewing even if an additional credit certificate is subsequently issued.
