Per Falcon Wealth Policies and Procedures:
Outside Business Activities
Supervised persons shall not engage in any outside business activity without prior firm approval.
Review and Approval by CCO
Supervised persons of FWP are required to report outside business activities to the CCO for review and approval prior to engaging in these activities (see Sample 3). The CCO will review these activities to determine if they create a conflict of interest with the supervised persons’ ability to act in the best interest of the firm’s customers. If it is determined that a conflict does exist, the CCO will determine if the conflict can be appropriately mitigated by disclosure or other means.
The supervised person shall provide at least the following information to the CCO regarding the activity:
- Name, address, contact information for the person or entity paying the compensation;
- Complete description of the activity;
- Amount of compensation
Disclosure on Appropriate Documents
Individual Form U4s and Form ADV Part 2Bs will be updated as needed for outside business activities. It is the responsibility of the individual supervised person and the CCO to make sure these documents are updated promptly in the event disclosure is required.
Certain outside business activities of supervised persons may require firm documents to be updated as well. If updates are required for Form ADV Part 1A, Part 1B, Part 2A, and / or Part 3, then the CCO will be responsible for updating these documents when needed.
