Denver, CO — November 6, 2018  — The September/October issue of the Investments & Wealth Institute® Investments & Wealth Monitor focuses on the fiduciary and regulatory challenges facing the investments and wealth management indus­try today.

The past few years have brought many changes to firms and advisors’ fiduciary responsibilities from the 2015 U.S. Department of Labor fiduciary rule, later vacated in March 2018; to the April 2018 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission version of a fiduciary rule released for comment. The changing landscape of the industry’s regulatory environment requires close examination.
