Correction: An earlier version of this story mistakenly stated that Mr. Niland is currently deputy staff director with the House Financial Services Committee. Limra International Inc. today added Lawrence J. Niland to its compliance and regulatory services division. His title is senior regulatory adviser. The Windsor, Conn.-based firm is a worldwide association of insurance and financial services companies, established to help its members improve their marketing and distribution. The compliance-and-regulatory-services division works with broker-dealers, helping them find solutions for compliance needs. The group helps broker-dealers with conducting branch office exams, checking producers’ backgrounds and training sales forces and supervisors on variable annuity compliance procedures. Mr. Niland was formerly the chief compliance officer for Signator Investors Inc., the registered investment adviser for John Hancock Financial Network Inc. of Boston. There, he had oversight of the U.S. retail-sales force, procedures and inspections of insurance market conduct, registered branches and investment advisory activities.
