New York, NY – October 12, 2021 – Silver, a premier provider of regulatory compliance, ESG and due diligence advisory services to the investment management industry, today announced it has expanded with the addition of Jaclyn Halk, as director. As the private funds space faces increased regulatory scrutiny under the new administration and SEC leadership, the firm continues to steadily expand its regulatory compliance bench.

At Silver, Jaclyn works closely with investment firm Chief Compliance Officers to evaluate and improve on their existing policies and procedures.

Prior to joining Silver, Jaclyn was a compliance officer at Hudson Advisors, an SEC and CFTC registered global private equity firm with approximately $40 billion in regulatory assets. Jaclyn served as the firm’s point person for SEC and NFA regulatory matters including filings, responding to regulatory inquiries, and interpreting Advisers Act and Commodity Exchange Act requirements.  Prior to Hudson, Jaclyn was a manager at Constellation Advisors, a compliance consulting services firm, where she assisted new advisers in building their compliance program from the ground up and registering with regulatory agencies, as required.

Jaclyn received a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Criminal Justice from the State University of New York at Albany and earned a Juris Doctor from Pace University School of Law.
