In April 2018, the SEC attempted to tackle the Fiduciary debate with its proposed Standard of Conduct Proposal. The proposed new rule, 204-5, would require an investment adviser to deliver a relationship summary to each retail investor before or at the time the adviser enters into an investment advisory agreement, as well as, to existing clients one-time within a specified time period after the effective date of the proposed amendments.
Additionally, the SEC is proposing to amend Form ADV to add a new Part 3, requiring certain registered investment advisers to prepare and file a relationship summary for retail investors. This webinar will address the potential impact to the advisory industry, specifically to advisers of retail clients.
To help RIAs understand the compliance requirements that may loom ahead, TradePMR is partnering with Ascendant Compliance Management to present the following webinar:
