July 2022 Board Meeting

This week, the FINRA Board of Governors will meet in Washington, D.C. As is customary for our mid-year meeting, the Board will engage in a series of general policy discussions; the agenda will include a review of how our industry is evolving, presentations on economic and market trends, and meetings with various policymakers. In addition to these discussions, the Board will attend a reception on Capitol Hill celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine (TRACE)—FINRA’s real-time, over-the-counter price dissemination service for the fixed income market—as well as the fifth anniversary of the reporting of transactions in Treasury securities to TRACE.

Because the Board will not make any regulatory or operational decisions affecting firms, I do not plan to follow up with any related communications once the meeting concludes.

The Board’s next meeting is in September. More information regarding the Board’s operations, including the membership and responsibilities of its committees, is available on FINRA’s governance page at www.finra.org/governance.

Sincerely,

Robert W. Cook
President and CEO
