- Investigate flagged items to determine root cause, gather supporting evidence, and reach a documented conclusion
- Clear reviewed items from the queue and log the review, findings, and disposition in the Firm’s designated system of record
- Track issues through to resolution and confirm that corrective action was taken and evidenced
- Identify recurring exception patterns and recommend process, control, or system improvements to reduce false positives and close gaps
- Maintain organized, accurate records to support compliance testing, internal audit, and regulatory examinations
- Assist in gathering facts and documentation in response to regulatory inquiries or exams
- Partner with Engineering and Brokerage Operations to improve the automation and reliability of monitoring workflows
- Stay current on the FINRA rules and internal procedures governing the reviews performed
