Here’s a breakdown of professionals and roles that typically require FINRA fingerprinting:

Broker-Dealers
If you are registering as a broker-dealer or associated with a broker-dealer firm, FINRA fingerprinting is required. The FBI background check confirms that your record is clear, allowing you to legally conduct securities transactions.
Registered Representatives
Stock brokers, investment advisors, and other registered representatives must submit their fingerprints for an FBI background check. This ensures compliance with FINRA’s strict standards for operating within the financial industry.
Firm Principals and Supervisors
Principals, compliance officers, and supervisors in FINRA-member firms are required to complete FINRA fingerprinting. This process reinforces accountability, ensuring leaders meet the industry’s high standards of trust and oversight.
Individuals Applying for FINRA Series Licenses
Applicants pursuing Series Licenses (such as Series 6, Series 7, or Series 63) must undergo fingerprinting and an FBI background check. This ensures full vetting before licensure to provide investment advice or engage in securities trading.
Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs)
Individuals seeking registration as RIAs or working as Investment Advisor Representatives must complete FINRA fingerprinting and FBI checks. This helps verify qualifications, history, and compliance with regulatory standards.
Compliance, Audit, and Monitoring Personnel
Employees working in compliance, auditing, or monitoring roles within FINRA-member firms may also be required to undergo fingerprinting. These checks confirm they can be trusted to uphold the firm’s regulatory responsibilities.
