FINRA Delays Implementation of Two New Rules

April 20, 2011

'KYC' and Suitability

FINRA has pushed back the implementation of 2 new critical rules in response to member firms' requests.  FINRA Rule 2090, Know Your Customer, and FINRA Rule 2111, Suitability, had been scheduled to go into effect on on 10/7/11 - as announced in Regulatory Notice 11-02.  However, numerous firms requested that the approved rules’ implementation date be delayed to allow firms additional time to determine the types of systems and procedural changes they need to make, implement those changes, and educate associated persons and supervisors regarding compliance with the rules.

Accordingly, the new implementation date is 7/9/2012.  There are no changes to the text of the rules.   [FINRA Rule Filing 11-16, 4/7/11]
