Chief Compliance Officer Services

You can enlist Foreside either to assist your existing CCO on a consulting basis, or to provide a qualified individual to serve in the capacity of CCO for your funds. Our customized programs service a range of registrants, including open-end, closed-end and exchange traded fund types. We will administer the fund's Rule 38a-1 compliance program, providing you the peace of mind that Foreside is carefully monitoring and testing the fund's operations and service providers. Our resources can be particularly helpful for special projects and reviews, especially when you require short-term or periodic help.
