Agenda:

Rebecca A. Beers, Partner

RumbergerKirk

  • The Supreme Court has recently released two decisions affecting practitioners’ ability to get cases into arbitration. We will examine the developments in the law surrounding when and where cases get compelled to arbitration.
  • FINRA has recently amended its rule governing how firms can take action to protect vulnerable investors when the firm believes a fraud is being perpetrated. This webinar will discuss what these changes in the rules are and how they may be translated to issues in arbitration.
  • The SEC has updated its guidance on implementing Reg BI, and FINRA has identified several issues that member firms have had complying with Reg BI. What are these issues and how will they show up in future arbitrations?

Heather B. Middleton, Counsel

Riker Danzig LLP

  • FINRA customer arbitration claims are down.  We will talk about the reasons why and when that may change.
  • Proposed changes to the expungement process were on, then off, then seem to be on again.  We will discuss the evolution and details of the proposal.
  • The Covid-19 pandemic brought on, or at least accelerated, the use of virtual hearing technology.  We will discuss when it makes sense to go virtual versus in-person, as well as practice tips.
