Become a Mediator

Mediation is an informal, voluntary process in which the mediator facilitates negotiations between disputing parties, helping them to find their own mutually acceptable resolution. What distinguishes mediation from other forms of dispute resolution is that the mediator does not impose the solution, but rather, helps make it possible for the parties to craft and accept the solution themselves. Mediation provides public customers, member firms, and associated persons with an effective way to resolve their disputes. Accomplishing this goal requires a highly qualified national roster of FINRA Dispute Resolution mediators. FINRA Dispute Resolution carefully identifies candidates and selects its mediators from a cross-section of highly qualified individuals, diverse in culture, profession, and background.
