Reg S-P has been mentioned quite frequently on this site. In March 2008, the SEC released a set of proposed amendments to Regulation S-P which seek to require registered investment advisers to enhance the protection of consumer financial information. If adopted, the proposed amendments would require advisers to expand existing safeguards into a more expansive “information security program”.
HedgeOp Compliance CEO, Bill Mulligan conducted a webinar on these proposed changes, specifically focusing on: helping investment adviser’s understand the expanded requirements under the proposal and discussing the hot button topics such as: (i) the identification of reasonably foreseeable risks at your firm; (ii) designing information safeguards to control/manage the identified risks; (iii) setting up a plan for testing and training for staff; (iv) evaluating the programs of your service providers; and (v) developing and reviewing your procedures related to unauthorized access of confidential data.
