* The Investment Advisers Act of 1940 does not specify that any training session is necessary, and therefore the date on which training should occur is not specified. However, a registered adviser must distribute and receive signed acknowledgements of changes to its code of ethics. Since the code (as well as an adviser’s compliance policies and procedures) may be amended as part of an adviser’s annual review, as well as at any other time, quarterly training should help to keep personnel up-to-date regarding policies and procedures and otherwise remind personnel of their compliance obligations.
