The SEC announced that it will hold a national seminar on investment management compliance on January 31, 2012 in Washington.  The agenda includes enterprise risk management, trading practices, registration, enforcement, and custody.  The program is part of the SEC’s “Compliance Outreach Program,” which was formerly known as “CCOutreach.”  According to the SEC, the new branding is intended to “be more inclusive of all senior personnel at firms and emphasize the need for compliance awareness at all levels of an organization.”  Carlo di Florio, Director of the SEC’s Office of Compliance Inspections and Examinations said that the SEC looks forward to a “constructive dialogue with senior personnel of investment management firms.”  The program is a joint effort of OCIE and the Division of Investment Management.  Registration can be done on-line and is limited.
