Building on FINRA's continued commitment to help member firms combat cyber and financial crime threats, the FIFC will collect, analyze and disseminate threat intelligence to bolster member firms’ awareness and ability to quickly respond to these threats. The FIFC will also leverage FINRA's existing partnerships, enabling input from other government and private sector partners. The platform was developed as part of FINRA Forward , a series of initiatives to further improve FINRA’s effectiveness and efficiency in achieving its mission of protecting investors and safeguarding market integrity. As a self-regulatory organization, FINRA is uniquely positioned to work with its member firms to better protect investors and mitigate risk to the securities industry. FINRA began piloting the FIFC last year with a diverse group of member firms, whose participation and feedback have helped strengthen the portal’s functionality and effectiveness for member firms of all sizes. Through the pilot program, member firms have accessed FINRA’s threat intelligence products and actively shared cybersecurity and fraud threat intelligence via the FIFC, enabling timely threat mitigation. FINRA encourages member firms to opt into the FIFC to gain access to this centralized portal for intelligence sharing among firms and FINRA.

As cybersecurity and fraud threats evolve, this type of innovation and coordination with our member firms—which is made possible because of our self-regulatory organization model — is essential in building a more resilient environment. Member firm engagement with the FIFC will bolster that defense system and will strengthen trust in our markets, while better protecting investors,” said Greg Ruppert, Executive Vice President and Chief Regulatory Operations Officer at FINRA .
