your questions.

What are your fees?

There is no charge for the initial consultation meeting.

Regulatory Alliance's services are normally relationship-based in that our clients engage our firm via a discounted retainer. Hourly services are also available for consultations and project-based services.

What's the best way to get started with Regulatory Alliance?

Please send us an email or give us a call at 231-994-2499 and we'll set up a complimentary initial consultation to discuss your firm's needs and objectives. Based upon the information you provide, we'll design a personalized strategy for your review and consideration.

I don't know how to start a conversation with a compliance "geek" or what to ask. Sometimes compliance or the fear of not knowing what I should know keeps me up at night.

It's OK. Compliance topics tend to keep a lot of people up at night (or puts them to sleep). However, we're on your side and our services are confidential. We will carefully listen to your concerns and devise solutions. We are experts at putting investment professionals and their personnel at ease. Let us be your guide into a pleasant and productive conversation.

Is it true that compliance services can be expensive?

An effective compliance program does not have to be expensive but it is an invaluable investment in your practice.

The goal of a strong compliance program is to help bullet-proof your practice and build a strong, successful operation. In this light, an appropriate compliance program is far less expensive than downtime during extensive regulatory audits, regulatory sanctions, lawsuits / arbitrations, settlements and reputational costs associated with compliance failures.
