SIFMA provides comment on the Massachusetts Securities Division’s proposed regulation “to apply a fiduciary conduct standard on brokerdealers, agents, investment advisers, and investment adviser representatives when dealing with their customers and clients.” SIFMA expresses concern the proposal, while well intentioned, will limit both the choices available to consumers and their access to one-on-one assistance.
