National Regulatory Services (NRS) Releases the First Advertising Review System with Bi-Directional AREF Integration

The enhanced ComplianceMax(TM) Ad Review Module allows firms to file pieces with FINRA using AREF and automatically retrieves FINRA's Comment Letter - facilitating and documenting an end-to-end workflow process.


LAKEVILLE, Conn., Oct. 8, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - National Regulatory Services (NRS) has released an update to the Advertising and Public Communication Review module on its ComplianceMax™ (cMAX) platform that adds new functionality to further increase the efficiency of managing advertising by automatically retrieving FINRA's Comment Letters.

Processing the required filings to FINRA's AREF system and retrieving the comment letters for advertising material are administrative tasks that can consume a great deal of your compliance department's capacity. cMAX can reduce the administrative burden with technology that automates the filing of advertising material to FINRA (with Principal approval), and now the retrieval of the comment letter once it becomes available. Once the approved filing has been made, your compliance professionals can focus on other activities with the peace of mind that they will be alerted once the comment letter has been made available by FINRA and automatically linked to the original filing in cMAX.

Additionally, the cMAX Ad Review Module provides:

  • SEC 17a-4(f) compliant storage to maintain records
  • A central data repository backed by a secure business continuity plan (BCP)
  • NRS regulatory expertise combined with state-of-the-art technology to deliver a solution consistent with industry best practices
  • A flexible workflow that can be tailored to your firm's procedures
  • Submission Form Content tailored to your business which informs reporting
  • Optional Single-Sign-On (SSO) to simplify access and ease-of-use

The ComplianceMAX™ compliance technology platform includes modules that support multiple business processes including branch audits, annual disclosures, Form ADV Part 2B supplements, customer complaints, firm element training and rep registration management.
