Foreword by Bo Howell:
I’m delighted to feature guest bloggers from time to time, especially when it’s someone that brings a complementary perspective to our compliance expertise. Jody Foster has been a supporter of Joot from our earliest days. She discusses some of the considerations to keep in mind if you’re planning to start your own fund or RIA.
As we continue to enhance our SaaS-based platform for automating compliance, we are also building out our services team. Today, another industry veteran joins Joot. John Williams, Director of Compliance Services, brings nearly three decades of regulatory compliance experience to Joot, with the last 14 as a chief compliance officer for a Broker-Dealer / RIA. He also has expertise in international operations, business continuity planning, cybersecurity and banking.
