Get all the benefits of a qualified and experienced FinOp for less than the cost of hiring a senior-level employee.
The cost of hiring a qualified salaried FinOp is growing at a fast pace as firms compete for a limited number of suitable candidates with the necessary knowledge and expertise. Small and mid-sized firms bear the greatest burden because they cannot afford salaries and opportunities offered by larger organizations. However, while the salaries of FinOps are increasing, the work involved in handling FinOp responsibilities is often still part-time for most small to mid-sized firms.
When weighing all the factors, outsourcing FinOp is a good strategy because it allows your firm to concentrate on building client accounts and adding new services, while financial responsibilities are kept in check. Outsourcing to a compliance support firm staffed with an industry CPA who has expertise in brokerage and regulatory compliance is an added bonus that provides your firm a relationship with veteran risk management and professional compliance solutions.
RND Resources Inc has the experience and credentials necessary to provide quality FINOP services like CPA compilation reports including FOCUS filing and FINRA regulatory reporting for broker-dealers on an outsourced basis. Our team can support your brokerage firm with on site support or work remotely from our office, with your auditors, to complete audit tasks on time. We’ll create a prepackaged monthly plan for you on a fixed fee basis or customize a program that fits your needs perfectly.
Benefit from a FinOp who is also a Certified Public Accountant
FINRA rule 1022 requires each FINRA member firm to designate a Financial and Operations Principal, who often also performs CFO responsibilities. The FinOP must qualify by passing the Series 27/28 exam before their registration is effective. They are not required to be a Certified Public Accountant, however CPA certification is crucial to being a successful Financial Operations Principal given the many risks, complexities, and constant changes in the regulatory environment. A licensed CPA with expertise in securities is well-equipped to handle regulatory accounting requirements, financial reporting, and meet with FINRA regulators as necessary which are all important responsibilities of the FinOp.
