Important Information</div><div></div><div>
FINRA&rsquo;s Code of Conduct imposes restrictions on employees&rsquo; investments and requires financial disclosures that are uniquely related to our role as a securities regulator. FINRA employees are required to disclose to FINRA all brokerage accounts that they maintain, and those in which they control trading or have a financial interest (including any trust account of which they are a trustee or beneficiary and all accounts of a spouse, domestic partner or minor child who lives with the employee) and to authorize their broker-dealers to provide FINRA with duplicate statements for all of those accounts. All of those accounts are subject to the Code&rsquo;s investment and securities account restrictions, and new employees must comply with those investment restrictions&mdash;including disposing of any security issued by a company on FINRA&rsquo;s Prohibited Company List or obtaining a written waiver from their Executive Vice President&mdash;by the date they begin employment with FINRA. Employees may only maintain securities accounts that must be disclosed to FINRA at one or more securities firms that provide an electronic feed (e-feed) of data to FINRA, and must move securities accounts from other securities firms to a firm that provides an e-feed within three months of beginning employment.</div><div></div><div><br>
As standard practice, employees must also execute FINRA&rsquo;s Employee Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement without qualification or modification and comply with the company&rsquo;s policy on nepotism.</div><div></div><div>
Search Firm Representatives</div><div></div><div>
Please be advised that FINRA is not seeking assistance or accepting unsolicited resumes from search firms for this employment opportunity. Regardless of past practice, a valid written agreement and task order must be in place before any resumes are submitted to FINRA. All resumes submitted by search firms to any employee at FINRA without a valid written agreement and task order in place will be deemed the sole property of FINRA and no fee will be paid in the event that person is hired by FINRA.</div><div></div><div>
