ATGS Adviser Compliance offers dedicated compliance services to independent Registered Investment Advisers (RIAs). We handle the adviser’s routine compliance issues as well as give support when immediate and substantive plans and responses for sensitive regulatory matters are needed.

What We Do

We build our relationships with clients on a foundation of four essential pillars of compliance care:

  1. Accountability: Our team serves as your compliance guide, keeping you on track to ensure you adeptly manage your regulatory responsibilities.
  2. Proactivity: We help you achieve accountability by establishing the right processes and procedures, and completing the right filings at the right times.
  3. Partnership: We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. As your personalized compliance team, we partner with clients to evaluate their specific needs and provide tailored services and solutions.
  4. Education: While we do much of the heavy lifting for you, we’ll also keep you informed every step of the way, helping you chart the ever-shifting regulatory landscape with clarity and confidence.
