This group’s mission is the education of the National LGBT Bar Association’s members regarding developments in the regulatory landscape governing financial markets and market participants, including lenders, broker-dealers, investment advisory firms, issuers and consumers. Specifically, the group will:

  • Monitor litigation and federal and state legislation affecting the markets and financial institutions and provide updates on pertinent regulatory and case law developments;
  • facilitate educational, professional development and networking opportunities for the LGBT Bar members through presentations by knowledgeable speakers and other events;
  • study and analyze the legal regulatory implications of the recent financial crisis, especially as they relate uniquely to LGBT communities and effective client representation;
  • provide information and analyses to the LGBT Bar Executive Director and other Association leaders on legal and policy issues relating to the financial crisis.
