Broker-Dealers & RIAsBuilt around the full trade lifecycle

Cuttone TAC brings direct operating experience to supervision, trading, reporting, financial controls and the technology that connects them.

Regulation translated into accountable work

Broker-dealers and investment advisers manage distinct regulatory duties across SEC, FINRA, state and self-regulatory frameworks. CFTC and NFA obligations add further complexity for firms with derivatives or commodity interests, while dual registrants must make responsibilities clear across overlapping programs.

Our team has worked inside the functions we advise. We help firms connect written policies to daily execution, surveillance, exception management, books and records, financial responsibility and regulatory reporting.

  • Keeping supervisory procedures aligned with current business activities and control ownership

  • Managing CAT, CAIS, TRACE and other reporting workflows with complete audit evidence

  • Testing best execution, surveillance and post-trade exception processes
