Book Description
In April of 2016, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) released its final rule that greatly expands the DOL's definition of "fiduciary" to apply to a broad range of advisors and broker-dealers who work with retirement related accounts. With many advisors currently operating under a suitability standard, broad imposition of the much stricter fiduciary standard of conduct will be a major change that will be felt by nearly the entire financial services industry. Even advisors who currently meet the fiduciary standard will face new documentation and operational requirements. The Advisor's Guide to the DOL Fiduciary Rule is the premier resource guiding advisors, planners, agents, producers, attorneys and other professionals through the new requirements established by the DOL's significant new rule. Written by one of the most highly respected legal experts in the field, this Guide delivers a powerful combination of expert explanations and legal analysis along with vital Q&As that provide reliable, direct answers to vital questions before they arise.
