FINRA: Social media guidelines for financial firms

Joseph Price, who serves as the Senior Vice President, Advertising Regulation/Corporate Financing at FINRA, will lead a members-only conference call, “FINRA: Social media guidelines for financial firms.”

Regulated industries, especially those in the financial arena, are faced with a particularly difficult challenge — living up to communication requirements that are quickly becoming outdated and harder to define in the social media era. FINRA, the largest independent regulator for all securities firms, is among the first to respond to questions with a detailed document, “Guidance on Blogs and Social Networking Sites.” Joseph E. Price will join us in a Show & Tell call to discuss FINRA’s social media guidelines for its 600,000+ representatives, including:

• Managing requirements for recordkeeping
• Properly supervising external communication
• Handling posts from customers and outside parties
