Most Small RIAs Aren't Ready for a Reg S-P Exam

The SEC amended Regulation S-P with stricter requirements that apply to every registered investment adviser, regardless of size. The compliance deadline is June 3, 2026.

Template Documents Won't Pass

Generic Reg S-P templates don't reflect your firm's actual operations, vendor relationships, or data flows. The SEC checks for firm-specific detail.

Solo Firms Face the Same Rules

There is no small-firm exemption. A one-person RIA managing $50M has the same Reg S-P obligations as a 200-person firm managing $50B.

Vendor Contracts Need Addenda

The amended rule requires signed 72-hour breach notification addenda from every covered service provider with access to client data.

Common Questions

No. Every SEC-registered investment adviser is subject to Regulation S-P, regardless of firm size or assets under management. A solo RIA managing $50 million has the exact same compliance obligations as a large firm. The amended rule provides no exemptions for small firms.

The SEC will evaluate your compliance during routine and for-cause audits. Non-compliance can result in deficiency letters, enforcement actions, fines, and reputational damage. The SEC has publicly stated that Reg S-P compliance is an audit priority for 2026.

Generic templates don't reflect your firm's actual operations, vendor relationships, or data handling practices. SEC auditors specifically look for firm-specific detail. A template that says "insert vendor name here" will be flagged immediately. Our documents are written from scratch based on your firm's actual infrastructure.

We've built a specialized process focused exclusively on Reg S-P compliance for small RIAs. Our consultation captures the specific information needed, and our team uses proven frameworks refined across hundreds of engagements. Every document is individually written and customized to your firm, and our expertise means we do it efficiently.

Yes, you'll send the addenda to your vendors, but we make it simple. The package includes pre-drafted addenda for the 20 most common RIA vendors (custodians, CRM providers, portfolio management platforms, cloud storage, etc.) along with email templates and instructions. Most clients complete this process in a single afternoon.
