Which entity is responsible for compliance, accounting, audits, and legal functions in financial firms?

Back office
Integrated firms
Schedule I banks
Middle office

The correct answer is: Middle office

The middle office is responsible for compliance, accounting, audits, and legal functions in financial firms. The back office mainly handles administrative and support tasks, while integrated firms refer to companies that offer both investment banking and commercial banking services. Schedule I banks are regulated by the government and have a higher capital adequacy requirement compared to other banks in Canada. Therefore, the middle office is the entity that is responsible for the mentioned functions in financial firms.
