What is FINRA BrokerCheck?


FINRA BrokerCheck is a free, public database that provides information about the professional backgrounds of brokerage firms and investment professionals. It's your window into a firm's regulatory history and credentials.


What you can find in BrokerCheck:

  • Firm registration details - When the firm was established and where it operates

  • Licensing information - What types of business the firm is authorized to conduct

  • Professional backgrounds - Information about key personnel and their qualifications

  • Regulatory history - Any disciplinary actions or regulatory issues

  • Financial disclosures - Important financial matters affecting the firm


Why this matters for your investments:


Before entrusting anyone with your wealth, you should verify their credentials and check their regulatory history. BrokerCheck provides this transparency.


How to use BrokerCheck:

  1. Go to brokercheck.finra.org

  2. Search by firm name or CRD number

  3. Review the detailed report

  4. Pay attention to any disclosure sections


What to look for:
