Interesting Angles on the DOL's Fiduciary Rule, Part 44

[Guidance Overview]
Apr. 26, 2017

"For the rest of this year -- the 'transition period'-- most firms will use the Best Interest Contract Exemption.... Transition BICE requires that the entity and the adviser only comply with the Impartial Conduct Standards (ICS) [which] has 3 components: the best interest standard of care, only reasonable compensation, and no materially misleading statements. In effect the best interest standard of care brings the ERISA prudent man rule and duty of loyalty to IRAs. As a result, advisers and their supervisory entities need to educate themselves on the requirements of a prudent process with a duty of loyalty to the IRA owner."
