Consulting Engagements – Anti-Money Laundering Testing – Expert Witness Services
When Bedford and Main started in 2012, we initially focused on providing traditional project related consulting services to the broker-dealer community. That hasn’t changed much. Our clients are primarily still introducing brokers, correspondent clearing firms, self-clearing and start-up broker-dealers, although we now solidly add Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) to the list.
A few years in, we expanded our consulting services. Having obtained a certification as an anti-money laundering (AML) specialist, we developed a specialized service to provide broker-dealers with AML testing. As all brokerage firms are required to undergo independent exams, our AML services allowed us to grow our client base.
Complementing this, we expanded to offer even more compliance related services. In 2019, we were exceptionally pleased to announce that Bedford and Main Financial Consulting, Inc. was listed in the FINRA Compliance Vendor Directory.
By leveraging our active industry engagements, we then established a line of business that provided Securities Expert Witness and litigation support. This quickly proved to fit our business model like a hand in glove! It became very clear that our practical knowledge and experience in operational and compliance consulting, perfectly complimented supporting security litigations on both sides of the table.
As we finish our first decade of providing services, we are particularly proud to point to our Testimonials page. Having had the pleasure to work with so many great industry pros, we are excited to look forward to the next ten years.
