Why This is Important to You

Financial services companies from every corner of the industry are feeling the pain and waiting with wonderment and confusion to see in what direction the public and regulatory winds will blow.

The wealth management industry, along with their banking counterparts are clearly caught in the middle of this maelstrom, as regulators vie to expand their turf and the boundaries between agencies blur.
