The SSAE 16 Advantage
|
SSAE 16 SOC 1 (formerly SAS 70) and/or AT 101 SOC 2 and SOC 3 certification has many advantages, such as illustrating to your clients that internal controls within your organization are in place and working as designed. Furthermore, SSAE 16 SOC 1 (formerly SAS 70) and/or AT 101 SOC 2 and SOC 3 audits allow corporations to distinguish themselves from the competition by using the document as a marketing tool. In essence, it allows the corporation who obtained a Type 2 SSAE 16 SOC 1 (formerly SAS 70) and/or Type 2 SOC 2 or SOC 3 audit to show outside parties that their internal controls are operating effectively for a stated period.
An SSAE 16 SOC 1 (formerly SAS 70) and/or AT 101 SOC 2, SOC 3 audit can be a crucial factor in retaining or obtaining new business.

Custody Rule
In December of 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) finalized the amendments to Rule 206(4)-2, the Custody Rule under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The Rule, commonly referred to as the “The Madoff Rule” became effective on March 12, 2010 and is designed to protect client assets from being lost, misappropriated, misused, or subject to Investment Advisers’ financial reverses. Brokers, Dealers, and Independent Advisors are now subject to SSAE 16 SOC 1 (formerly SAS 70) and/or AT 101 SOC 2, SOC 3 requirements.
