Investment Adviser Association (IAA)

Advocacy - IAA works closely with policy makers on every issue that directly affects investment advisers, and represents the interests of investment advisers on Capitol Hill, working with members of Congress and their staffs to educate them about relevant issues and concerns. The IAA regularly comments on rule changes proposed by the SEC, Department of Labor, other Federal and State agencies, and international regulators that directly affect the investment adviser industry and the IAA membership.

Education - The IAA is a source of educational materials and programs, tailored to address specific issues affecting the investment adviser community. The IAA sponsors a wide range of workshops, conferences, webinars and networking events. These IAA-sponsored events address business, management, compliance, operations, technology, and other relevant issues. The IAA also publishes various reports and surveys each year.

Compliance - The IAA serves as a resource for all IAA member firms. Our staff responds to hundreds of requests for information each year from IAA members on a wide variety of regulatory and compliance issues. In addition, the IAA provides extensive online compliance and regulatory materials, located in a members only section of the website.
