For MSPs serving accounting firms, RIAs, and financial advisors

MSP for Financial Services: Monthly IT Reports Built for Regulatory Scrutiny

An MSP for financial services clients faces a different documentation standard. RIAs, accounting firms, and insurance agencies operate under regulators who specifically ask about IT controls, security documentation, and business continuity. Roviret delivers SOC, FINRA, and audit-ready monthly reports automatically, every month, branded to your MSP — so your financial services clients have the paper trail regulators ask for.

What financial services firms need from their IT provider

A financial services firm with no IT documentation is carrying regulatory risk it may not know about.

RIAs face SEC cybersecurity rules. Accounting firms are targets for financial data theft. Insurance agencies trigger state notification requirements if breached. Every one of these firms has someone — an examiner, a compliance officer, an auditor — whose job it is to ask whether the IT environment was properly managed. That question does not get answered by a ticket queue your client has never seen. It gets answered by a monthly record of what was monitored, patched, backed up, and resolved.

Regulators ask for IT documentation — verbal answers don't qualify
SEC examiners reviewing an RIA's cybersecurity program ask for written evidence of implementation — monthly reports with security activity, access controls, and patch compliance are exactly that evidence.
Downtime during market hours has a direct dollar cost
When advisory or trading systems are unavailable while markets are open, there is no recovery for that lost time — monthly uptime reporting shows your client how systems performed when it mattered.
A financial data breach triggers consequences on multiple fronts
Notification requirements, regulatory scrutiny, and client loss all follow — a firm that can show its MSP was monitoring and documenting every month is in a materially different position than one that cannot.
Compliance officers review your reports, not just principals
The principal forwards the IT report to their compliance officer, who evaluates whether it supports the firm's regulatory filings — a report that holds up under that review cements your relationship.
How it works

Your PSA and RMM stay exactly where they are.

01

Connect

We connect to your PSA (ConnectWise Manage, Autotask, or Halo) and RMM (NinjaRMM, Datto RMM, or N-able) via read-only API. NDA signed before any access — we cannot write to or modify your systems.

02

Build

We build your branded template with the sections principals, compliance officers, and auditors need: security incident history, access controls, patch compliance, backup integrity, and system uptime. The executive summary is written in plain English for a business reader.

03

Deliver

Reports go out automatically every month — you review and approve, or we send directly to clients. No one on your team builds, formats, or exports anything.

FAQ

Questions worth asking before you fill out the form.

Can our financial services clients use the reports for regulatory documentation?

The reports give financial services clients a monthly record of security activity, access control status, patch compliance, and backup integrity. For an RIA responding to an SEC examination or an accounting firm in a SOC 2 audit, that documentation supports the evidence-gathering process. These are operational records, not a compliance certification — but they show IT was actively managed and documented, which is exactly what regulators ask about.

Our financial clients worry about downtime during market hours. Does the report cover that?

Yes. For advisory firms or trading operations where unavailability during market hours creates direct business risk, system availability is tracked and reported. A principal or compliance officer can see exactly when systems were available and whether any downtime was logged and resolved.

What does a report for an accounting firm or RIA actually include?

Reports include a plain-English executive summary for principals and compliance officers, security activity covering threats detected and remediated, access control status, patch compliance, backup integrity, and system uptime. A managing principal can read it without an IT background and understand their firm's security posture for the month.

What does setup involve and how long does it take?

Setup covers API connections to your PSA and RMM, data mapping for your financial services client accounts, and the branded template build. The one-time fee is $1,500 and the process completes in about 30 days. After that, reports go out monthly for $800 flat — no per-client fees, no long-term contract.
