Can financial advisors have a podcast?
Yes. Financial advisors can host a podcast on financial education, planning concepts and conversations with other professionals. Your firm reviews and archives content under the SEC Marketing Rule, FINRA rules and its own policies. Stimulate plans, produces, edits and posts, and gives no investment or compliance advice.
What could the show be about?
- Educational episodes on planning concepts, framed as general information.
- Conversations with other professionals your clients use.
- How you work with clients, without individual details.
Who reviews the content?
You handle your own industry's advertising and compliance review. Your firm and its compliance team are responsible for making sure episodes, clips and posts meet the SEC Marketing Rule, FINRA communications rules and your firm's supervision and archiving policies. Stimulate edits, produces and posts what you approve. We do not give legal, compliance or professional advice and cannot guarantee that content meets any rule.
How do advisors fit recording around client meetings?
Many advisors record during quieter weeks of the year and batch a month of episodes in one sitting. A live producer keeps the session on track, and timestamps help your compliance team find specific segments quickly during review. Clips and show notes are prepared from the approved edit, so what goes out matches what your firm signed off on.
How should financial topics be framed on a podcast?
- Keep it educational and general, not individual recommendations.
- Avoid performance claims and specific investment picks.
- Include any disclosure your firm requires.
- Keep a copy of every published episode and clip for your records.
