With their new “Campaign for Investors” initiative, the Institute for the Fiduciary Standard hopes that by providing educational resources and tools, they can put the fiduciary standard in context for investors.
Along with its launch on May 24, the Campaign introduced an Investor Bill of Rights. With it, the Institute hopes to outline what investors should expect from their advisors in order to better plan for their futures. “The Bill is based on the standards in the Institute’s Best Practices for Financial Advisors and should be considered a start for evaluating advisors,” president and founder of the Institute Knut A. Rostad said.
The Campaign hopes to reach out to investors through its website in order to assist them with their decision on whether or not they need an advisor. They aim to similarly assist advisors adjust their business to best serve clients’ needs in order to remain a valuable resource.
