Upcoming Webinar: Supervising Gifts & Political Contributions of Investment Adviser Representatives

October 26, 2009


Reading time : 1 minute

Although the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) does not currently have any specific rules associated with the giving or receiving gifts or political contributions by representatives affiliated with a federally registered investment adviser, the influencing of others through gifts and political contributions in the context of an investment advisory relationship creates a potential conflict of interest, which must be addressed and mitigated by an investment adviser.

If you are interested in learning more about recent enforcement actions against investment advisers which lacked safeguards related to gifts and political contributions, please consider purchasing a seat for only $59.95 to our upcoming webinar, “Supervising Gifts and Political Contributions,” on Wednesday, October 28, 2009 from 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.

During this webinar, our speaker, Bryan Hill, will share best practices for supervising gifts and political contributions while reviewing recent SEC enforcement actions against investment advisers, the proposed political contribution rule for investment adviser reps, current rules of FINRA and the U.S. Department of Labor which may apply to some investment adviser representatives and guidance from certain professional accrediting organizations on this subject.
