The constantly changing regulatory environment has created unique challenges to broker-dealers in their desire to remain compliant with the various organizations that govern them.

In order to respond to the growing complexity of the rules and regulations issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), self-regulatory organizations and the Federal Reserve Board, it has become imperative for these firms to engage professionals that have specialized knowledge in their industry. Marcum LLP has responded to this demand by forming the Broker-Dealer Practice Group. Marcum is committed to the Broker-Dealer community and strives to stay on the cutting edge of the planning and compliance issues that directly affect the BD community.
