Understanding FINRA and Its Significance

As an investor, it’s important to know that FINRA, or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, is a self-regulatory organization tasked with overseeing and regulating broker-dealers and their associates in the United States. Its primary objectives are to ensure market integrity and protect investors from fraudulent activities. Here’s how FINRA functions and why it’s essential:

Market Regulation: FINRA monitors trading activities to detect and prevent market manipulation, insider trading, and other fraudulent practices.
Licensing and Education: It ensures that industry professionals meet and maintain specific licensing requirements and are educated on the regulations and best practices.
Investor Education: FINRA provides resources and tools to educate investors, helping them make informed decisions.
Dispute Resolution: Through arbitration and mediation, FINRA provides a platform for investors to resolve disputes with brokers and brokerage firms in a more efficient and cost-effective manner than traditional court litigation.

Silver Miller’s seasoned attorneys are deeply familiar with the ins and outs of FINRA regulations and use this knowledge to advocate relentlessly for our clients’ rights. Understanding FINRA’s role is crucial for any investor, and our team ensures that you are well-equipped with this knowledge as we navigate the arbitration process together.

Filing an Investor Regulatory Complaint vs. Arbitration Case

Filing an investor regulatory complaint and filing for arbitration with FINRA are two distinct processes. Arbitration is aimed at resolving monetary disputes between investors and broker-dealers or firms affiliated with FINRA. It allows you to seek compensation for losses incurred due to fraudulent actions, omissions, or other misconduct of a broker.

On the other hand, an investor regulatory complaint serves as a means for investors to inform FINRA of suspected fraudulent activities or misconduct by a member broker or firm. While FINRA investigates these complaints and can impose regulatory sanctions such as fines, suspensions, or expulsions, an investor complaint will not result in personal financial compensation.

What is the Difference Between FINRA Arbitration and Mediation?

FINRA also offers mediation as an alternative to arbitration. While arbitration is a trial-like process with a binding decision by a third party, mediation is more like settlement negotiation facilitated by a neutral mediator. The mediator helps both parties understand the strengths and weaknesses of their cases, striving for a mutually agreeable resolution.

FINRA mediation can be opted for even during an ongoing arbitration process and requires agreement from both parties. It is notable that according to FINRA, over 80% of cases opting for mediation result in settlement.

How Long Do You Have to File a FINRA Claim?

Navigating FINRA regulations alongside federal and state statutes of limitations is intricate. It’s imperative to consult a knowledgeable FINRA lawyer promptly. Our attorneys will help you understand the time limits applicable to your case and ensure your claim is filed within the requisite timeframe.

What Can You Recover in FINRA Arbitration?

Winning a FINRA arbitration could entitle you to compensation for expenses and losses incurred due to a broker-dealer or firm’s fraud or misconduct. This may include:

Brokerage Fees: Fees paid to the broker or firm for services involving fraudulent behavior or misconduct.
Investment Losses: Compensation for the diminished value of investments due to broker fraud or misconduct.
Incurred Expenses and Losses: Additional expenses and losses, such as tax liabilities.
Legal Fees and Costs: Reimbursement of legal fees and other costs incurred in pursuing the arbitration.

Moreover, alongside financial recovery, you may demand other forms of relief like specific performance of contractual obligations.
