Preparing for Your Form ADV Part 1 Annual Amendment
Customized Compliance Solutions
for Registered Investment Advisers
We are a boutique compliance consulting firm that specializes in working with mid- to small-sized
registered investment advisers registered with the SEC or state regulatory agencies.
Your business isn't one-size-fits-all, and your compliance program shouldn't be either.
Instead of an off-the-shelf cookie-cutter compliance service that might not fit your business model,
we offer customized compliance services that are designed to meet your specific needs.
Our goal is to provide tailored solutions that address the applicable regulatory requirements and compliance risks, while streamlining processes to make your compliance easier to manage,
so that you can get back to the business of serving your clients.
We recognize that small businesses have limited budgets and resources.
We also recognize that many advisers are comfortable compliance do-it-yourselfers
who may only need occasional guidance or support.
Our consulting services are offered on an hourly basis,
with no retainers, ongoing subscriptions, or minimum fees.
This allows you the flexibility to decide what you want to outsource,
and greater control in managing your compliance budget.
Why Adroit?
The word "adroit" means skillful, resourceful, and agile, which is how Adroit strives to serve its clients: being skillful in delivering services, resourceful in developing solutions, and agile in addressing your needs. The word is derived from the French phrase "à droite," literally meaning "to the right," but the word can be used to infer doing things fairly and justly. Adroit's goal is to always treat clients with fairness and integrity.
Services
Whether you're just getting started with your advisory business, or your firm is well-established,
or you're somewhere in between, Adroit can provide the compliance services you need.
Here's a sampling of our services to give you an idea of where we might be able to help you.
Registration Filings
Navigating the various regulatory filings can sometimes be cumbersome and time-consuming. However, it is important that filings be completed correctly, accurately, and timely. Adroit can provide assistance in preparing, reviewing, and updating your various regulatory filings, whether it's for your initial registration or for subsequent amendments.
Inform and Educate
Compliance topics can be complex, and the regulatory environment is often shifting. We love to help educate our clients on compliance topics, and can provide advice on how to manage your practice within the regulatory boundaries. We provide updates and rules and regulations change, and can help you update your internal policies and procedures to adapt to regulatory changes.
Policies and Procedures
Investment advisers are required to have comprehensive written policies and procedures that are designed to uphold their fiduciary duty, address risks, and meet regulatory requirements. Adroit can help you prepare, review, and update your policies and procedures, and make sure that they are appropriate for your business model.
Additional Support
Whether you outsource your entire compliance program or whether you feel confident managing it all yourself, sometimes you just need a little extra support to get advice or to assist with special projects. Adroit is available to help you with any one-time or ongoing support you may need, such as assistance with regulatory exams, consulting on new products or services, or providing information on new rules and regulations.
Where Our Clients Are Located
We provide our services virtually and work with both SEC- and state-registered advisers located throughout the United States. We are centrally located in Northern Illinois, so we easily can accommodate the schedules of East Coast, West Coast, and everywhere in between.
Currently, we serve SEC-registered advisers that are notice-filed in all 50 states,
and state-advisers registered in 35 states, highlighted in green below.
We are comfortable working with both federal and state regulators in any jurisdiction.
