Drawing on decades of securities industry experience, Andy Mannarino counsels broker-dealers, investment advisors, futures commission merchants, swap dealers, and proprietary trading firms in regulatory compliance and enforcement matters in various subject matter areas, including regulatory transaction reporting and market access.

Before joining McGuireWoods, Andy held several legal, compliance, and supervisory roles within the securities industry, including at one of the world’s largest market-making firms where he oversaw the compliance program for client-facing businesses and supervised the firm’s regulatory transaction reporting program globally, including with respect to the Consolidated Audit Trail (CAT), Electronic Blue Sheets (EBS), FINRA/NYSE/NASDAQ TRF, FINRA ORF, TRACE, Swap Data Repository (SDR) MiFid 2, Securities Financing Transaction Reporting (SFTR) and EMIR reporting, among other areas.
